Narrative                                                                                District I Street Conversion

Located in the thriving Green Valley area of Henderson, The District is a nixed-use outdoor urban environment consisting of luxury lofts, office space, and retail. Urban and charming, convenient and eclectic, The District is a swirl of colors and flavors to be thoroughly enjoyed.

The objective of the street conversion was to further enhance a main street feel, while adding shade, ample seating, and an enlarged performance area. A 24’ wide firelane had to be maintained down the street for fire access. Multiple seating nodes were created through the use of low stone seat walls faced in red flagstone, decorative iron fencing, and lush planters. A steel framed trellis, lights, speakers and electricity enhance a large grass area used as a performance space. Flagstone columns wrap around the base of the trellis and seatwalls also provide informal seating when weary shoppers need to rest.

The District street conversion provides a varied experience for all to enjoy. People watching is the main activity and on any given evening, young children, the elderly, and even our pets intermingle as they meander down the street listening to soothing music in an inviting atmosphere that is destined to become the heart of this beautiful community.
