1. The Broadway Valdez District Specific Plan will be a framework plan that will look at a retail enhancement strategy for the upper Broadway area. The next Public workshop will be November 5, 2009 where Project Alternatives will be presented.
2. The Kaiser Medical Center Rebuilding, which is now under construction. A history of the M/B Center that being demolished at the moment is contained in a PANIL (Piedmont Avenue Neighborhood Improvement League) newsletter. This megablock is an interesting experiment in urban planning that was always too big to be a successful place.
3. Renovations to the Pleasant Valley Safeway and Longs (a.k.a. "Big Longs"). Living in the O has a post about the community meetings. This is a big box, car-oriented shopping center. Pre-application plans show a little more intensification at the site, with the replacement of Big Longs.
