Norris Design worked with the city to develop plans for the first phase of the Station Plaza and Parking Structure Study for Westminster, a transit-oriented development attendant to the regional transportation district's FasTracks project for the Northwest Rail Corridor. The conceptual designs for the streetscape and the pedestrian plaza were refined and developed into landscape and hardscape construction documents. The firm developed 3D project visualizations that the city will use to market the project to potential retail and office space clients. Norris Design coordinated with multiple city departments, the Rapid Transit District, Denver Transit Partners, Colorado DOT and a consultant team working on the park on the south side of the tracks.
