Fisher’s Landing TOD Master Plan

Re-Patterned for People

Park-and-Rides have traditionally been designed with cars in mind—a place to park before catching public transit. When C-TRAN selected us to design a new model for Bus Transit-Oriented Development, we centered our vision around what truly matters: people. Working closely with the local community and city officials, our master plan for Fisher’s Landing prioritizes the pedestrian experience and equitable access to transportation. The goal is to make bus ridership a key element of a healthy, inclusive future for Vancouver and East County. While the past was designed for cars, the future will be designed for all people. Our plan for the Fisher’s Landing Transit Center goes beyond just bus access. It integrates space for people to live, shop, and socialize, creating a vibrant, mixed-use hub. Located on 164th Avenue in Vancouver, Washington—a major transportation corridor—the site is well-positioned near trails, businesses, and residential communities. Our urban design team conducted a comprehensive market study and gathered input from transit riders, residents, neighborhood associations, partner agencies, and local developers to understand the needs and opportunities for the area. To transform the underused parking lot into a pedestrian-friendly destination, we worked with the city to address the need for new zoning, traffic patterns, and a balanced approach between auto and pedestrian movement. Our master plan provides C-TRAN with a clear roadmap to attract developer interest and to phase expansion in a way that ensures buses continue to run smoothly throughout the development process. This project sets a new, equitable precedent for the entire transportation corridor. It includes affordable housing near transit, connections to open spaces, and a community park—creating a destination that welcomes all. The Fisher’s Landing Transit Center will be a model for communities where transit is not just a way to get from point A to point B, but where people can live, work, and thrive.
