Open House / Input Opportunity

The City of Asheville is wrapping up planning to improve Livingston Street and a portion of Depot Street to make them safer and more comfortable for pedestrians, bicyclists and transit users.

Based on input from the community at meetings in September, the engineers have made revisions to their preliminary plans, which addressed the physical structure of the roadway and sidewalk. They have now begun to design the look of the route as you travel through it, including landscape, lighting and materials used.

The consultants will present their revised roadway plans at an open house to be held at the Edington Center and offer the public the opportunity to provide input on the look of the route.

In 2013 and 2014, the City and community worked together on the East of the Riverway Connections transportation network plan, which identified capital improvement opportunities in the East of the Riverway area. That planning recommended improvements to Livingston Street that would make it a complete street. A Federal Highway Administration TIGER grant (Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery) will fund construction of this complete street project. The TIGER grant also paid for the East of the Riverway planning process. TIGER grants fund the planning for and construction of capital investments in surface transportation infrastructure, i.e. roads and the infrastructure around them, such as sidewalks, bike lanes and more.

We need you! Drop in at any time during this open house to:

  1. See the 75% plans and give input on the Livingston Street Complete Streets amenities like plantings, lighting and materials used.
  2. Sign up to help design the public engagement process for the development of a Southside neighborhood recreation plan that will address the community pool, park, future gymnasium and spray ground.
  3. See what the historic trail markers for the Town Branch Greenway will look like.

City staff expects this to be the last input opportunity for the Livingston Street Complete Streets project. The City anticipates construction beginning in 2017, and will provide notice to area residents and users prior to the start of construction.

LilaDance! and Family Jam

“Join us for our new all ages Friday night dance class for families!

Veda members welcome.

On the first Friday of the month LilaDance! will be followed by a free form family house party from 7-8, details TBA.

LilaDance!, to make it simple, is a creative movement session for families and babywearing mamas.

But if you’d like to get a little more in depth, it is a piece of me that I wish to share with anyone and everyone needing to remember the forgotten and hidden sides of them. When we grow up, we forget our inner child. When we begin having children, we find our passions get lost. When we stop making time to get quiet and still, we stop recognizing inner wisdom.

Lila, in Sanskrit, means “play.” In LilaDance! we play, we dance, we move, we pretend, we listen, we yell, we sing, we give energy to these forgotten pieces within ourselves. LilaDance! is a practice. It is a practice of Self Compassion. A practice aligning the Heart with the Soul. A practice of Actions we set for our children. Beyond this, I cannot give you much more of a picture. You will just have to come and experience it for yourself. Come connect with your…
Silly. Sexy. Sacred.

Play In and Around Childhood Toy Themed Foam Structures

Mall Hours are Monday through Saturday 11:00am-7:00pm and 11:00am-6:00pm on Sundays.

KEEP IN MIND: Although the stores don’t open until a certain time, the mall doors reportedly open 2 hours earlier for mall walkers and early birds. This includes the soft play area in the food court! BUT the playground is subject to closing during that early time for an hour for cleaning, and when they re-open depends on what time cleaning began. “The play area does get cleaned in the morning and it takes over an hour to clean the entire area. We do our best to have it open as early as possible but the hours do vary on some days.”
