What Is a Streetscape?

Every day people travel along streets for a variety of activities whether on foot, on a bike, or in a car. A streetscape is the sphere that includes the public right-of-way (ROW) from the edge of properties on both sides of the street. The streetscape typically includes a mix of features including but not limited to vehicular lanes, sidewalks, bike lanes, parking spaces, planting strips, storm water management elements, signage, street lights, utility lines, amenities such as bus stops, and facades of built structures. A successful streetscape design conveys a safe, environmentally friendly, aesthetically appealing, inclusive, and context sensitive atmosphere to the area, neighborhood, or district. In addition, established streetscapes enhance the functionality, accessibility, and vitality of the built environment.
