DAD members, several planners and several interested people have conceived a few possibilities for the re-invented South Square area. They are archived below for your consideration, for use at the September 29 Community Design Workshop, and to stimulate zesty dialog and further brainstorming from everyone.

In the meantime, think about re-inventing the Mall in the context of basic principles of sound New Urban Planning. There are several foundational precepts you'll want to keep in mind as you envision the possibilities.

"The loss of a forest or a farm is justified only if it is replaced by a village. To replace them with a subdivision or a shopping center is not an even trade."   - Andres Duany
