The Downtown Extension (DE) District | The Trout Creek (TC) District

The intent of the Industrial Heritage (IH) District is to place building clusters and utilize site patterns that create neighborhoods reflective or reminiscent of Truckee’s industrial past. Buildings in the IH District will be designed to express the traditional utilitarian forms of Truckee’s mill and railroad structures. As encouraged in the Downtown Specific Plan, the IH District will include a mix of uses including housing, live/work, work/live, artisan industry and commercial land uses. Both mixed use buildings and individual commercial and residential buildings are envisioned for this District. The design guidelines provide qualitative direction for contemporary expression of buildings that once represented an important economic activity for the town.
