Walking Tour of Gateway District
The City of Arcata invites the community to join City staff for a walking
tour of Arcata’s “Gateway District” on Saturday, June 19.
The Gateway District is a 100-acre area located west of K Street that is planned to be re-zoned as a part
of the City’s General Plan Update, and could possibly be redeveloped into future housing.
Tour participants will have the opportunity to explore areas of the Gateway District with high potential
for redevelopment. Community members will have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss
potential effects of new housing units in the area, the potential size and height of the housing units,
environmental considerations including wetland and stream restoration, historic preservation, and
aesthetic and safety improvements that could be made to the area.
The tour will take approximately one hour and there are two timeslots available, at 10 a.m. and at 12
p.m. Tours will leave from the southwest corner of the Arcata Plaza at the corner of 8th and H Streets,
across the street from Jacoby’s Store House. Each tour will be limited to 15 people, and reservations are
not required. Participants must plan to bring a face covering and follow adopted COVID-19 safety
protocols.
Community feedback received during these walking tours will be used to help shape the way Arcata
looks in the future. The Community Development Department has recently hosted a similar walking tour
with Arcata High School students and has facilitated two virtual Arcata future visioning sessions with
members of the public to inform and engage the community on updates to the City’s General Plan
policies, which will help shape how the city of Arcata will look, function, provide services and manage
resources for the next 20 years. Community feedback gathered from previous events can be reviewed at
cityofarcata.org.
