This project is intended to design and construct streetscape and façade improvements on West 7th Street, between Hamilton Boulevard and Wesley Parkway. The concept is to create an attractive corridor for both vehicle and pedestrian traffic. Staff intends to partner with the Engineering Division on any infrastructure projects to occur in this corridor. The streetscape elements proposed will increase the walkability of the corridor and attract development/redevelopment opportunities. In addition, a façade improvement program is proposed for the area. West 7th Street is an eclectic mix of various service and retail uses that keeps the street active. Originally, the area began as a manufacturing area due to the close proximity of Perry Creek. As population increased on the west side of Sioux City, the area transitioned into a retail area and later became the auto row in the 1940s. Therefore, there are still some historically significant buildings located on West 7th Street. The façade improvement program would provide a means to rehabilitate historic and non-historic structures while expanding the tax base in the area. The project is included in the city's 2023-2027 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). As of December 21, 2022, further details regarding design and construction have not been identified.* *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
