Improving Parkdale Shopping Village

You’re invited to share your thoughts on Parkdale Shopping Village.

Your ideas will help us improve the Parkdale streetscape and create an environment for people to enjoy and business to flourish.

Urban shopping villages are the business and civic centres of our neighbourhoods. It's important that streetscapes within these villages are designed and built to reflect local character and create a coordinated and consistent image for the City of Kingston.

Streetscapes in an activity centre should be designed to achieve the following desired outcomes:

• Strengthen the character within of activity centres
• Be well used by the local community
• Based on environmentally sustainable design principles
• Practical and cost effective to maintain
• Stand the test of time
• Provide a functional, safe and universally accessible environment for all people, including those with disabilities
• Of high quality in design and construction. To achieve these desired outcomes, a successful streetscape relies on a supportive combination of the following:
  • Access - Passing pedestrians, cyclist and vehicular traffic
  • Street Edge - Business, retail, food outlet, public institutions
  • Public Space - Footpaths, footpath trading, lighting, furniture, planting.
