A vehicle turning the corner has to clear the curb, and the sharper the corner, the slower the vehicle must go. ---PAGE BREAK--- Douglas Downtown Placemaking Drawn By: SBM Checked By: DM Date: March, 2015 Wayfaring – Signage -Draft Family 30 ---PAGE BREAK--- Douglas Downtown Placemaking Drawn By: SBM Checked By: DM Date: March, 2015 Wayfaring – Signage -Draft Family 31 Douglas Historic Downtown ---PAGE BREAK--- Douglas Downtown Placemaking Drawn By: SBM Checked By: DM Date: March, 2015 Public Art - Murals 32 ---PAGE BREAK--- Douglas Downtown Placemaking Drawn By: SBM Checked By: DM Date: March, 2015 Public Art – Awnings Signs 33
