Architect's Vision:

The Transportation Center currently serves as a parking garage for the Dayton Convention Center, Crowne Plaza Hotel and a variety of downtown businesses. The re-use plan envisions it as an entertainment venue, a lively hub for the many local restaurants, bars, shops, and galleries surrounding it. Other highlights of the redesign include:
• Streetscape improvements, including colorful pylons for lighting, signage, and event power
• New building addition clad with building graphics, moving signage, and neon
• New infrastructure, including streetcar system serving downtown, UD, and WPAFB
• City-owned kiosk concept for micro-commercial enterprises
