Downtown Urbana Public Realm Study

Urbana, Illinois

 

This plan evolved from numerous community engagement activities with the intent to revitalize and activate several locations within their downtown district.

Our team organized and facilitated a focused series of meetings and workshops with the city and downtown community members as a vital part of the planning process. Through these interactions, we established goals and identified key opportunities for urban interventions.

Through the exploration of alternative ideas to enhance these areas and the evaluation of each in an open and collaborative process, our team refined the preferred ideas and developed a plan to guide future implementation.
