24. Divided Street | Design Implications Design Benefits: Provide additional on-street parking Maximize commercial viability Maintain existing street pattern along length of Flat Schoals Ave. Provides flexibility for existing properties in median (either with rehabilitated structures or green space) Design Issues: Lowered accessibility to site Concern over one-way drive speed mitigation Requires traffic circle to maintain access to site

28. Howell Drive: Two-Way Street and Access Drive

29. Two-Way Street with Access Drive | Design Implications Design Benefits: Provide some additional on-street parking Additional residential character at site Conform to Reynoldstown Master Plan at the intersection of Flat Schoals Ave and Memorial Drive Design Issues: Lowered accessibility to site Less on-street parking, minimizing potential to retain existing structures within median Requires traffic circle to maintain access to site

32. Two-Way Drive| Design Implications Design Benefits: Conform to Reynoldstown Master Plan at the intersection of Flat Schoals Ave and Memorial Drive Potential for additional land area and value Design Issues: Potentially expensive, and time-consuming, property acquisition from the city Resubdivision required before any improvements to existing site Eliminates on-street parking and minimizes commercial viability Inconsistent with historic subdivision of public space
