The Willits Town Center has been planned as a traditional downtown with a regular gridded street system, tree-lined streets, on-street parking and buildings that front broad sidewalks. There will be mixed use buildings with ground floor retail, second floor office space and third floor residences as well as single use 2 and 3 story buildings. We are planning live/work buildings that will allow for traditional apartments over on-street work/business storefronts. There will be a Town Square and Pocket Parks and locations have been established for a Performing Arts Building, a Government Office Building, a Hotel, and a Transit Facility/Park and Ride Lot adjacent to Highway 82. The Town Center has been planned and fully approved to be a vital mix of 600,000 square feet of working, shopping, living, culture and recreation organized along a 'Main Street' reminiscent of the beloved 19th century towns of the Roaring Fork Valley.

Downtown shopping has increasingly become a form of entertainment and recreation. The Town Center will serve not only the residents of the Roaring Fork Valley, but the tourists for whom shopping is part of the vacation experience. We can accommodate the smallest user or a mid-size box and any size in between. Architectural Design Controls have been developed to assure that each building contributes to a familiar small town character of storefront lined streets. In addition to on-street parking, there will be parking behind buildings in carefully planned and landscaped lots.
