DRAFT September 2014 <br /> TCAAP Redevelopment Code <br />Page | 113 <br />  <br />(f) Pedestrian Passage (Paseo) Standards <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Pedestrian passages or paseos are linear public open spaces that <br />connect one street to another at through-block locations. Pedestrian <br />passages create intimate linkages through buildings at designated <br />locations. These wide pathways provide direct pedestrian access to <br />residential or other commercial addresses and create unique spaces <br />for frontages to engage and enter off of. Pedestrian passages <br />allow for social and commercial activity to spill into the public realm. <br /> <br />Pedestrian passages should consist of a hardscape pathway with <br />pervious pavers activated by frequent entries and exterior <br />stairways. The edges may simply be landscaped with minimal <br />planting and potted plants. Shade is required for the success of the <br />paseo. <br />Typical Characteristics <br />General Character <br />Hardscape pathway with pervious <br />pavers <br />Defined by building frontages <br />Frequent side entries and frontages <br />Shade Required <br />Minimal planting and potted plants <br />Maintain the character of surrounding <br />buildings <br />Standards <br />Min.
