Utile led the citywide plan for the City of Haverhill, MA. The plan offered three scenarios to consider the city’s future: increased density and height in the city’s industrial areas, modified regulations to encourage development along the waterfront and in the city’s downtown, and the creation of eight “village cluster” nodes across the outerlying areas of the community. By looking at increasing density only in specific areas, the plan aims to preserve the balance of town and country that residents enjoy, while continuing to keep Haverhill competitive in the economic and industrial sectors that have served it well in recent decades.
