APPOMATTOX CORRIDOR PLAN Appomattox, VA

Richard Price and Placeworks Collaborative led a design team in a study of opportunities for improving connections along the Old Courthouse Road corridor, which links the Town of Appomattox to the Appomattox Courthouse National Historical Park and the newly constructed Museum of the Confederacy.  This corridor plan articulates through graphics and text a shared vision that will be invaluable towards attracting new development, while regulating the appearance and design of newly constructed, and reconstructed buildings in the corridor. The plan provides a summary of the elements that should be present in the future, including an inviting walking and bicycling environment, landscaping, mix of tourism supportive commercial uses, and overall appearance of the corridor. The plan also provides an overview of potential funding sources and policy related actions that could help to facilitate implementation of the community’s shared vision for the corridor.
