Project Area Description

Lincoln Avenue represents one of the major commercial corridors in the City of Cypress and consists mainly of mixed-use and highway-oriented businesses. Predominant land uses in the area are heavy commercial, with an additional mix of uses, including general commercial, multiple-family residential, single-family residential, church, and public/semi-public. There are approximately 200 land parcels within the Project Area.

The entire 3 mile length of Lincoln Avenue from Coyote Creek Bridge to Valley View Street has undergone a $6.5 million streetscape improvement as part of a comprehensive revitalization effort to Rediscover Lincoln. Included is the adoption of a Land Use Specific Plan which will set new design and development standards and implementation of various incentives to encourage economic development along the Lincoln Avenue corridor.
