2. 2 Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) TOD should accomplish 2 things: 1.Create a sense of place and community in the small area around the station 2.Reinforce the connection of that community to other parts of the surrounding metro area compact, mixed-use development within walking distance of public transportation Federal Transit Administration

5. 5 Texas Overview Houston: TOD implementation has been hampered by land speculation Austin: The City has instituted 9 TOD Districts (one around each future station on its Capital MetroRail commuter line). One successful project, Midtown Commons, has been developed and construction almost complete San Antonio: No rail-based mass transit, but commuter line (LSTAR) planned between city downtown and Austin El Paso: Only mass transit system, Sun Metro, currently employs buses exclusively. City has highly-detailed and methodical capital improvement plan which includes provisions for TOD and possible future light rail service, but TOD would primarily be based on existing and expanded BRT

6. 6 Washington, D.C. Metro Area TOD in this area is recognized as foundational, definitive, and standard-setting across the national spectrum. Transit in the area is overseen by the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA), whose area of administration uniquely covers two states and a federal district directly overseen by Congress. The first private development project, Rosslyn (Virginia), was begun in 1973, three years before the Metrorail system opened Now, Rosslyn-Ballston Corridor generates 33% of Arlington Countys revenue on 8% of its land. By 2003, there were 30 joint-development projects with a combined value of $4 billion. Today, future station locations are screened for development potential by WMATAs real estate development department before site selection. Three-quarters of all construction in Arlington County, VA since 1960 has been in Metrorail corridors.

18. 18 Selected Best Practices Pedestrian-Focus is Key There must be diversity in forms of residential and retail amenities available A resident or visitor should be able to access a wide range of business or personal needs such as post, laundry, barber, grocery, entertainment, etc. Parking should be limited, shared, or hidden Sidewalks and pedestrian overpasses should be emphasized Every aspect of design must prioritize the perspective of the pedestrian Area Should be Safe Area should be well-lit Traffic-calming measures should be inserted around transit stops Weather protection should be incorporated into the design Maintain community police stations in or near transit station Aesthetically Pleasing Use ground floor retail with large front windows to encourage leisure-walking Building heights should be varied Architectural styles should be diverse, but not discordant *Developed from Transit-Oriented Development, Campaign for Sensible Growth and the Northeastern Illinois Planning Commission Uses Should Be Mixed
