TAHOE CITY, Calif. – To create a welcoming western entrance to Tahoe City, the Tahoe City Downtown Association is leading an effort to restore and beautify the Wye at State Routes 89 and 28, with community input being sought to help shape the final design. “Transforming the most prominent intersection in downtown Tahoe City into a welcoming, sustainable gateway that reflects our community’s mountain character will enhance the experience for everyone,” said Katherine Hill, TCDA executive director. “It will also strengthen local pride and support economic vitality by encouraging visitors to want to stop and explore our local businesses.” A total of $100,000 in TBID funds generated by tourism have been allocated by the NTCA and the committees it convenes in support of the project. The design work will be completed by Siegfried Engineering, a firm that has extensive experience designing community spaces that are both functional and meaningful, and has an office in Truckee.
