Central Falls Welcome Sign

Scope of Work

Project Statement:

The City of Central Falls needs assistance in creating a “Welcome” gateway structure to the city that will

sit at the corner of Dexter and Clay Streets. The client envisions a design that would be used in the re-

branding of the city and could extend to other areas in the City. They envision a nice welcome area with

brick – to reflect the industrial history of the City – flora and fauna arrangements, signage that could be

changed for different events, lighting, maybe even a water feature.

Project Steps & Timeline

What research steps and processes will take place and by what date? Please include meetings with the

partner in this step.

March 27

Site visit to downtown Central Falls

Meeting with Steve Larrick, City Planner and Jerauld Adams, property owner, to discuss the scope of the

project

Week of April 1

Begin researching examples of Welcome Gateways for cities and keeping a record of best examples and

materials used.

Create a pattern book for the City of common New England/Latin Quarter/Latin American sign types for

both the welcome sign and main street signage.

Week of April 8

Site visit to Central Falls

Working in the downtown area, conduct interviews with business owners on Broad Street and Dexter

Street, and residents in the area/using the area, asking what they envision as being welcoming for the

community. Survey groups may show business owners and the pattern book that has been established

and ask for feedback based on a set of pre-designed questions. Example: “Do you think it’s important for

the welcome sign to be more modern looking or historic looking?” “Out of these samples, which signs

which design of a sign would draw you in to the business?” “What colors are most representative of the

Central Falls Community?” etc.

Week of April 15

Based on research and feedback from the community, incorporate findings in to conceptual drawings and

renderings for the Welcome Sign.

Week of April 22

Present first draft of the design book, welcome sign to the CPC staff for suggestions and review

Site visit with Steve Larrick and Jerauld Adams – or video conference – to go over conceptual

designs/sketches and manual. Survey business owners and residents on which signage styles they have

a preference for and why. What feelings do these signs invoke for them?
