10.1.H Purpose of the HMC-2 Historic Marigny/Tremé/Bywater Commercial District

The HMC-2 Historic Marigny/Tremé/Bywater Commercial District is intended to permit more intensive commercial uses than the HMC-1 District, yet protect the historic character of the Marigny/Tremé/Bywater area. The district includes the peripheral properties in Marigny/Tremé/Bywater that front on major traffic arteries and can provide access for more intense commercial uses. This district also allows higher residential densities when a project is providing significant public benefits such as long-term affordable housing.
