The Department of Planning and Development (DPD) is partnering with the 46th, 47th, and 48th wards, the Edgewater Chamber of Commerce, and Uptown United to create a land use plan for the segment of Broadway between Montrose and Devon avenues.

Broadway is a busy commercial street along the CTA Red Line that connects the communities of the north lakefront to transportation, open space, community services and essential businesses.

The land use planning will build upon other recent planning efforts in Uptown and Edgewater. It will focus on expectations for new development and alignment with community goals. This effort is timely, as CTA’s Red and Purple Modernization construction will soon be complete and construction staging sites will become available for redevelopment.

Following the Oct. 7 kickoff meeting, members of the public are invited to take a survey to share their goals and priorities for the Broadway study area. The survey is open through Oct. 21. For those who didn't attend the kickoff meeting, the presentation boards are available for review.

Based on the feedback provided, draft land use and zoning recommendations will be presented at a future community meeting later in 2024.
