COLIGNY DISTRICT REDEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN

Hilton Head Island, SC

Richardson Group, L.L.C. 

Redevelopment Plans for the Coligny District were prepared to illustrate the potential redevelopment of this important beach front commercial shopping district. This planning effort began with a three day long planning and design charette to engage Town Council members, property and business owners and residents, town planning staff and others to establish the framework for land use patterns and infrastructure.  WPi led a team of consultants including planers and urban designers, market analysts, civil engineers, transportation planners, economists and architects.  Many of the facilities across the district were initially built prior to the Town's existing land use management ordinance and are non-conforming.  New development plans reflect the communities’ interest in creating a mixed-use commercial and residential shopping district supported by new civic open space.  Proposed streetscape improvements included on-street parking, building set-backs facilitating street plazas for outdoor dining and shopping, new parks & civic open spaces, and traffic calming facilities.
