STC Featured in Block Club Chicago!

Strong Towns Chicago member Eddie Lehwald was just featured in a Block Club Chicago article for launching a community survey on “small bet” improvements on the Northwest Side. This kind of tactical urbanism does not wait for risky, multi-million dollar projects — quick, flexible fixes can test ideas, build trust, and make our streets safer right now.

If you live in the 1st, 35th, or 26th Wards (or spend time around Palmer Square Park), take a minute to fill out the survey and help shape what comes next.

And if you want to go deeper, consider joining our friends at the Northwest Neighborhood Alliance—they’re pushing for safer streets, better mobility, and a more prosperous Northwest Side. And check out all our other allied organizations here!
