OVERVIEW OF THE BAYWAY CORRIDOR PLAN BAYWAY PLAN STAKEHOLDER COMMITTEE KICKOFF MEETING
BAYWAY CORRIDOR PLAN The Bayway Drive was once a thriving corridor boasting new homes and modern retail � centers, but as Baytown grew new developments were constructed to the East. Soon, existing businesses relocated to new commercial districts or closed which left vacant structures and properties along the corridor. T oday Bayway Drive is unique as it connects a variety of land uses, neighborhoods, industrial plants, community facilities, and vacant and underutilized properties. The Bayway Corridor Plan will be used to drive the revitalization of the Corridor by � identifying key marketing and economic development opportunities and challenges, beautification opportunities, and infill development opportunities. It will also develop a Capital Improvement and Action Plan. BAYWAY PLAN STAKEHOLDER COMMITTEE KICKOFF MEETING
