Neighborhood Commercial District

Neighborhood Commercial Districts provide needed services, amenities and community spaces to surrounding neighborhoods. Neighborhood Commercial Districts are characterized by small scale retail and service uses that may include mixed-use or attached housing development. They are compact, pedestrian-friendly developments that have good connections to the surrounding neighborhoods. Geared toward the convenience needs of immediately surrounding residents, Neighborhood Commercial Districts should be located within a five to ten minute walk of residential neighborhoods. Neighborhood Commercial Districts are sometimes anchored by a small grocery store, specialty market or pharmacy. Other supporting uses should match the scale and intensity of the neighborhood setting, and may include small offices, restaurants or other convenience-oriented retail and services; Neighborhood Commercial Districts may be developed as a discrete commercial center, or function as infill development within, or adjacent to, neighborhoods. Neighborhood Commercial development should focus on pedestrian-friendly design that connects the business and amenities to their residential neighborhoods. Neighborhood Commercial Districts are often located near or centered on a civic space that defines the area, and provides a focal point for community gathering.
