  Sterling Insights, Inc.       Revitalization – “Vision of Alpine” Event    0 Revitalization Workshop February 19, 2005: “Vision of Alpine” The following images are built upon the County of San Diego’s 2001 conceptual maps suggesting how Alpine Boulevard could be improved. Participants in the 2/19/05 “Vision of Alpine” event applied their collaboratively developed vision elements to each mile of Alpine Blvd. Their goal was to imagine a town center that is built and functions in a way that expresses what Alpine residents value most in their environment, economy, and social life. This is a work in progress. Share it. Play with it. Improve on it. To see the original workshop notes and drawings, contact the Revitalization Community Development Sub-Committee at
