In 2001
Project for Public Spaces developed a plan to make Farmington
Avenue in Hartford a great place to shop, stroll and socialize.
It was a concept plan for the avenue, with details to be worked
out when the final design stage began. The City of Hartford
began design for the first phase of the streetscape project
in 2005. The concepts of the original Farmington Avenue Plan
were used to guide the design but not all elements, such as
roundabouts and a bicycle lane, were incorporated into the
preliminary design.
