Downtown Ann Arbor is the civic, economic and cultural heart of the community. The Downtown Ann Arbor Design Guidelines are intended to provide general design principles and specific qualitative measures to promote the community’s objectives for maintaining downtown as the center of the community. By helping to accommodate compatible
infill development, the design guidelines also promote economic sustainability and reduce sprawl in outlying areas.
New development should be sensitive to the traditional context of
downtown Ann Arbor. Although such development may be larger or taller than that seen traditionally, or incorporate contemporary design elements, it should also respect the design context and traditions of the character district, block and street in which it is located.
Questions on the book should be addressed to Alexis DiLeo: adileo@a2gov.org
