Downtown Transition District

The D4 downtown transition district is intended to provide for business infill development and redevelopment within downtown Evanston. The massing and scale of structures within the D4 district should be reflective of established uses and should provide suitable transition between downtown districts and those districts adjacent to the downtown. The district is also intended to encourage and sustain a mix of office, retail, and residential uses. Planned developments are encouraged as a special use in the D4 district. Where a lot zoned D4 is overlaid with an oRD redevelopment overlay district designation, a planned development is required in order to ensure that proposed development in these areas is consistent with the objectives and policies of the adopted plan for downtown Evanston.

Permitted uses

Bank
General retail
