The Chicago Department of Transportation (CDOT) is conducting a streetscape improvement project on Division Street from Dearborn Street to State Street. The proposed streetscape project will consist of infrastructure, pedestrian safety, and placemaking improvements with the goal of creating a unified, safe, walkable, and attractive commercial destination.

This project will seek to beautify and expand public space on the block by reducing the roadway width and expanding sidewalks. Expanded sidewalks will provide more space for outdoor dining and for street trees and plantings. The goal of the project is to foster community, support the local economy, and provide more opportunities for community gatherings and events.

The project is in the design stage and the project team is gathering information to help guide the improvements.
