Neighborhood Identity Policy Moves

Neighborhood Identity encompasses unique features and landmarks that make each neighborhood area recognizable, neighborhood history and heritage, and the different communities that add to the vibrancy and diversity of the area. Policies in this section will identify and strengthen the physical and cultural elements that should anchor the neighborhood as it evolves to meet the needs of residents, businesses, and services that call these places home.

Goal

To enhance Eastgate’s distinct qualities as a convenient, green, and welcoming neighborhood.

Policy Moves

Fostering tree canopy as an identifiable element of Eastgate within streets, parks, and areas with lower tree canopy

Enhancing entrances into Eastgate from Interstate 90, the Mountains to Sound Greenway, and adjacent neighborhoods

Maintaining appearance of trails, trees, and streetscapes to improve community image

Retaining and cultivating accessible, locally owned, and neighborhood retail and services as a draw for nearby residential areas

Revitalizing Eastgate’s employment centers north of Interstate 90 to attract global employers, creative uses, and mixed-use development
