Urban design plan for the Clarksdale neighborhood

In the spring of 2000 a group of entities that included the City of Louisville came together to revise the Downtown Development Plan, a ten-year plan for revitalizing the center city of Louisville. The Plan calls for adding residential devel-opment for all income groups as a key element in economic revitalization, with the goal of transforming the Central Business District into a 24-hour, seven-day living Down-town. Clarksdale and the neighboring communities were included in this development area and were integral in this process; their participation in the planning focused mainly on the larger Clarksdale area and their recommendations became a key part of the Downtown Development Plan.
