A Redevelopment Proposal for the City of Pomona, CA
The Fairplex Park
Fairplex is starting to reinvent itself. Quaint stores, large open-air plazas, shaded walkways, and a public park.
The Fairplex Park is a mixed-use development with an assortment of interesting stores, retail shops, restaurants, mixed-income housing, neighborhood-serving amenities, some offices, along with a public park. Trees line the walkways and street plazas. People sit down for meals with tables shaded with umbrellas. Others prefer to stroll across the parkways. Customized to the Fairplex community, The Fairplex Park promises to create a pedestrian-friendly mixed-used environment that provides a more meaningful social, leisure and shopping experience and allows a greater opportunity for interaction among families, visitors, and neighbors.
