APS worked with Espiritu Loci, a Scottsdale-based firm that does development and planning, on design for the site. Part of the process involved inviting input from community members. “We’ve incorporated all of the elements that people have asked us to incorporate,” founder and CEO Trevor Barger explained during Wednesday’s meeting. (They’ve been gathering community feedback since 2018.)
Plans call for a central concave wall on the southwest corner of Roosevelt and Seventh streets, with visual elements that incorporate the Roosevelt Row name. Barger described it as a “grand welcome corner for Roosevelt Row.”
The design includes shade structures, benches, a clock tower, a Roosevelt Row marquee, and movie poster boxes where the Roosevelt Row Community Development Corporation can post event information. A large-scale map of Roosevelt Row is also in the mix.
