Project
Description
These workshops were conducted by the Schools of Architecture
and Art and Design in conjunction with area community development
corporations to improve the physical attractiveness of commercial
and industrial areas in Pilsen and the Near West Side. One goal
of the program was to work with local businesses to ensure that
existing industries and employment bases were maintained. Students
also worked with the communities to develop plans to redesign
depressed commercial areas and mass transit stations, and to enhance
open public spaces.
