Description
From the author: "LJC is collaborating with All Reimagining Chicago (ARC) and the Dept. of Planning to develop an intervention that transforms an empty lot in the Austin neighborhood into a bright and welcoming public open space that serves neighborhood businesses impacted by COVID.
Food truck stalls, a flexible lawn with casual seating, and a basketball court that doubles as a plaza for markets will sit on top of a geometrically patterned site. A mural on the site’s Eastern wall will extend along the ground plane and across Chicago Ave to engage the community and invite passers-by to explore Austin’s culture."
