SCENARIO C

Economic growth is catalyzed through a research/university presence at the prison site; improved workforce size, education, and diversity; and successful establishment of marquee companies. There are more jobs and higher salaries, although some companies don’t locate to the area because of lack of public transportation, sustainability, and urban places.
Densities are constrained so that additional growth spreads to places like Eagle Mountain.
In addition to the long-range transportation plan, there are further investments in roadway capacity.
There are moderate efforts to improve air quality and no additional efforts to reduce water use.
There is a moderate amount of additional recreation and open space.

Prison Redevelopment in C

The Story

The 700 acres of the existing prison site and adjacent state-owned land are redeveloped in a mix of uses that includes a research and university presence that (1) helps provide a high-quality workforce that meets the needs of targeted industries by training and attracting talent, (2) catalyzes business growth through research and technology transfer, and (3) creates a nationally-recognized draw that brands the area and the state as a place to be. Additional uses include higher-density office and retail, as well as a high-density mix of housing and some open space. Uses are generally separated and designed to be convenient to access by car but not by foot, bicycle, or transit.
