1. Logan Square located west of downtown Chicago is
an area in need of redevelopment. The area is
separated. There is a separation from residential
to commercial as well as separation between
greenspace. The proposal for urban development in
the area is a green network that acts similiar to
a highway to a car. The green network would be a
way to enhance pedestrian movement. It could be
used to get from home to work or as a trail to get
to the bloomingdale trail and parks. A secondary
move is to give Logan Square a sense of place
by giving more prominence to the intersection
of three main roadways on the site. The design
calls for a design of a square in that area with
pedestrian bridges to reach through the area.
