We aim to transform the unused alley from Los Feliz Drive to McClintock Drive into a vibrant community space. This project will boost connectivity in Tempe, providing access to Selleh Park and a future Reflector BikeIT path at Los Feliz. Beyond just a path, we envision this alley as a shady, inviting spot for walking, jogging, and other micro-mobility activities.

Key Features:

• Access and Connectivity: The alley will connect various destinations, making it easier for everyone to get around.
• Accessibility: The design will include user-friendly pathways, ramps, and clear signs to ensure it is accessible to all.
• Safety and Visibility: We will create an open, well-lit corridor to enhance safety and security. With homes, a church, and housing nearby, maintaining visibility and patrol access is crucial in making the area feel safe for everyone.
• Crime Prevention: The design will avoid barriers and enclosures to keep the area open and secure.

Community Involvement:

As has been done on previous projects, the community will be engaged through public outreach, using visual design concepts and collecting your feedback. Future designs will accommodate existing services, like waste collection, and maintain access to utilities and easements.

We believe this site has the potential to become a great recreational and transportation area. By integrating Green Stormwater Infrastructure, such as site grading, basins, and water harvesting features, this project can set an example of Urban Cooling with practical uses, similar to Country Club Way, the El Paso Gas Line Trail, and College Avenue (green infrastructure section).

Join us in transforming this alley into a vibrant, usable space for everyone!
