§ 11.5.7. Make Each Station Area a "Place"

O Create a destination with a collection of unique places to attract visitors and enhance the character of the existing neighborhood environment.

O Make buildings landmarks to create notable places, aid in local way-finding, and make the area attractive and memorable.

O Establish sightlines and views to and from the station to help orient pedestrians to their surroundings and to find their way.
