The public is invited to attend a hearing on Thursday, June 3, 2010 at 5:30 p.m. to get a glimpse into the future of the Innsbrook Corporate Center. The Innsbrook Foundation, along with the County of Henrico, recently put together a land use study and an initiative collectively known as “Innsbrook Next,” to explore possibilities for the future of Innsbrook.
The plan calls for the gradual transition of Innsbrook from an office park to a UMU district, which county code defines as an “Urban Mixed Use” area, where a variety of uses are combined in one property or area, similar to nearby West Broad Village.
Changes to the development’s goals and objectives include increasing pedestrian-friendly options and implementing improved sidewalk systems, encouraging better distribution of future retail construction, alternate transportation options and better traffic flow.
Artist renderings posted on the Innsbrook Next website paint the picture of a future Innsbrook resembling a small town. Many existing features such as the Innsbrook Shops would be demolished or heavily modified under several of the conceptual plans. Many existing office buildings would remain or be updated.
The meeting will be held in the Highwoods Properties building off Highwoods Parkway, near Cox and Nuckols Roads.
