Public Meeting for Proposed Park at 16th and Wabash

Back in August we had a post that elicited quite a bit of discussion in regard to a proposed park at 16th and Wabash. We were glad to get a recent email from a reader notifying us of an upcoming public meeting discussing the park:

Alderman Fioretti and the Chicago Park District invite you to attend a public meeting to review conceptual plans for a new Chicago park near 16th Street and Wabash Avenue.

The site will be developed into a new park, with area residents and dog owners in mind. A dog friendly area will be part of the design as well as areas for residents without dogs.

7:30 p.m. Wednesday, November 17, 2010

1st District Chicago Police Station

1718 S. State Street

If you have any questions prior to the meeting, please contact Maritza Garcia in the 2nd Ward community service office at (312) 263‐9273 or Maritza.garcia@cityofchicago.org.

Since there was a lot of debate hopefully there will be a lot of turnout this Wednesday!
