A reimagined downtown Dothan is about connectivity and wide open spaces, the city manager said to an audience in the Civic Center arena as he presented the multi-phase City Center Block Project.
In the architectural concept first introduced to the public on Monday night, Dothan’s downtown municipal block anchored by the Dothan Civic Center and administrative offices would look brand new.
A 300-spot parking deck would also be built along the new street, with a boutique hotel facing St. Andrews Street across from the Opera House, which is due to be renovated and get a major addition in the plan. Ideas presented at the Dothan Civic Center on Monday evening are part of the “Transformation through the Arts” initiative spearheaded by the local nonprofit Wiregrass Foundation in collaboration with leaders from local art groups, education, business, government and tourism.
Those plans include dozens of suggestions for how to shape and improve the downtown area, including new roads, a roundabout, parking decks, and apartments and townhouses – to name a few. Those projects will likely get started within the year with an approximate five-to-eight-year timeline to accomplish items in the first phase.
