Urban Design and Placemaking
Streets are the threads that knit places together. At Toole Design, we approach urban design primarily through a transportation lens: we believe that great streets are the foundation of a healthy, vibrant community, and that those streets are a billboard for community values. Our goal is to create streets and public spaces that have a real sense of place and that better serve the needs of people in the community. From small town centers to busy downtown corridors, our urban design approach creates beautiful places that are both functional and enjoyable.
