Prior studies have focused on project feasibility, financing, marketing, and management of mixed-use developments. Consequently, there is limited knowledge of mixed-use developments and urban design. This thesis presents an urban design analysis of the Arena District mixed-use development in Columbus, Ohio. The analysis investigated the Arena District Master Plan to determine whether the development is good urban design. The method of investigation was the Attoe and Logan (1989) urban catalytic architecture model. The Arena District Master Plan and its implementation to date were found to transform existing elements positively; respect existing urban form; understand the downtown architectural context; consider existing elements in the planning phase; be strategically planned; and keep the elements of the development identifiable. These qualities brought about the conclusion that the Arena District Master Plan is good urban design and might serve as a good model for future urban mixed-use development projects. 2002 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1392796212 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1392796212 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
