What is the actual plan for bramm street yards? Any links to it?

Actual plans? No. What the cities vision is, yes. I think if you go to City Hall, get off on Floor 6, and head towards College St, once you are off the stone floor, turn right again, and you should see a bunch of design pictures hanging on two walls. You might need to go to security to get a security pass to access floor 6, as I am not sure if it's a public floor, though it could be. They had a good vision for the Bramm St Yards. I was under the impression they wanted it sooner than later, but 'sooner' could still be a 5 year thing, so who knows.

There's no "actual" plan for the Bramm Yards. The city has done a few visioning exercises over the years, but there is no master plan or anything of that sort. The city is reserving that land and directing growth to "inner" downtown as much as possible, and will open up those lands when the current wave of projects are all finished. I would guess that they will start working on a more detailed master plan for them in the coming years, but not soon. Also keep in mind that UW owns quite a bit of land immediately adjacent to Bramm Yards, so they would likely be involved in the process too.
