The open house on Thursday, August 15 will continue the conversation with residents and community stakeholders on the Community Grid Vision Plan, a multi-decade look ahead at how Syracuse can maximize the positive impact of the Interstate 81 Viaduct Project on neighborhoods and mobility.
The Community Grid Vision Plan is the result of an urban planning and community engagement process funded by the American Rescue Plan Act. It makes recommendations regarding the city transportation network, land use, housing and economic development, public spaces and bicycle and pedestrian accommodations.
The Vision Plan is based on extensive neighborhood and stakeholder input, including a weeklong design charette in August 2022 which engaged city residents in visioning and design. To lead the process, the City hired Dover Kohl & Partners, a consulting firm well known for neighborhood planning and landscape design related to major public infrastructure projects.
The City released the Vision Plan online at syr.gov/communitygrid on Wednesday, Feb. 21.
