Landscaped Medians

King of Prussia District, in partnership with the Renaissance Park condo association P&F Ventures, completed planting an impressive length of medians on Renaissance Boulevard. The exciting planting plan was produced the King of Prussia-based Landscape Architecture firm Stuart & Associates and showcases a vibrant palette of perennials, ornamental grasses, shrubs, groundcovers and bulbs. After a competitive bid process, King of Prussia District hired Patriots Ground and Site Services to plant 2,200 linear feet of Renaissance Boulevard.

Signage

King of Prussia District engaged D2 Branding to develop an exterior wayfinding and signage master plan for Renaissance Park that will culminate in new sign design guidelines and a comprehensive wayfinding system for this burgeoning mixed-use district. With input from stakeholders, this placemaking effort will direct the design and construction of new gateway and wayfinding signage.

King of Prussia District Beehive

After the success of our first beehive at Moore Park, we are worked with Alveole once again to bring bees to Renaissance Park! Our hive is installed across the street from 2901 Renaissance Boulevard and we will hold workshops throughout the year. Spectators are also welcome to visit the hive during regular 3-week maintenance and ask our beekeeper, Mo, any questions you may have about the bees.

Pedestrian Improvements

The Renaissance Park Pedestrian Gateway to SEPTA’s Hughes Park Station will soon be advertised for bid and construction. This project stems from a 2020 Renaissance Park Stakeholder Engagement Study by King of Prussia District and a 2018 Safe Routes to Transit report by the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission that recommended several access improvements, including trail enhancements between Renaissance Boulevard and Crooked Lane. Improvements include a multimodal trail, pedestrian lighting, accessible curb ramps, seating and landscaping and will be completed in partnership with MLP Ventures and the Renaissance Park business condo association. These enhancements will improve accessibility and safety for residents, employees and visitors who are traveling between Hughes Park Station, Renaissance Park and the surrounding neighborhood, and will allow for further renovations of this transportation corridor in the future.

 

A Vision for the Future

In February 2020, King of Prussia District engaged Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. to lead our organization, commercial property owners, public agencies, business tenants and residents through a visioning and interview process that has culminated in an action plan for Renaissance Park.  Through a series of interviews, virtual workshops and surveys, Stantec delivered a matrix of prioritized improvements with estimates and stakeholder participation.  Improvements to pedestrian and transportation infrastructure, streetscape, signage, development design guidelines, public spaces and special events are included in this amenities road map that will enable King of Prussia District and stakeholders to develop Renaissance Park, Discovery Labs and GSK into the next level of mixed-use district.
