Nicetown CDC plans to use an empty, 3-acre right of way beneath the elevated Roosevelt Boulevard to make the neighborhood more walkable, active, and fun. The Collaborative's conceptual plan lays out a versatile community sports court with basketball courts, a soccer field, a skate park, rain gardens, a public green, and a plaza for food trucks and seasonal farm stands.
"All the design team members have great experiences and ideas, but it's the community that has the intimate experiences and ideas that are needed to develop the project concepts and designs."
