Nine Rails Creative District Master Plan

In 2018, Io completed the Master Plan for the implementation of Ogden City’s new Nine Rails Creative District. The purpose of this new arts district is to create an epicenter for art and culture that provides opportunities for the creative community to live, develop, share, and teach their diverse skills for the benefit of Ogden’s artists, citizens, and visitors.

Our team worked closely with Ogden City and the project steering committee to complete public scoping, and worked through a series of proposals for phased improvements throughout the district. The Master Plan identified the official boundaries of the district, established guidelines for streetscape improvements and development patterns, and identified priorities for phased improvements, public art, and tactical urbanism.
