Abstract


Paper
Using CommunityViz for the Tacoma Dome Area Plan
Track: State and Local Government
Author(s): Donna Wendt

The City of Tacoma published the Tacoma Dome Area Plan in 2001. ArcView GIS was used with CommunityViz extension in the process of developing and evaluating the economic, infrastructure, and 3D visual impacts of planned development options for the Tacoma Dome area. The goal of this project was to redevelop what is now mainly a commercial/industrial area to a mixed-use district of retail and entertainment with urban housing. Components of this project were rezoning, environmental analysis, transportation analysis, light-rail, commuter rail, and the proposed museum and office building construction projects.
