Strengths Excellent Zone for Lunch Use of Trees as a buffer Nice walking paths Lots of variety, food and use Manages current traffic load well

Weaknesses Lack of residential Lunch only crowd Construction Zone Fence between papa’s and the center, unable to walk through the site Crossing the street is never consistent (6 lanes to cross)

Opportunities More parking More retail Corner signage (for retail) Medians on Kirby to match Richmond New shopping center to be something complementary Provide safe pedestrian crossing

Threats Light Rail Competition for parking How to get out Becoming a higher traffic area Business being threatened by light rails
