| Strategic Planning – Corridors of Vision | |
 |
Corridors of
Vision, a community-based strategic planning process, was designed by
Uptown United board members Mary Laura Jones and Rev. Dr. Sid Mohn. The
intention of Corridors of Vision is to plan the revitalization of the
major commercial corridors through exercises in visioning and
prioritization. This process took place over a period of four years and
involved residents, business owners, design and real estate
professionals and institutional stakeholders. Please take a few
minutes to study the Corridors of Vision summary along with the
photographs of some of the recent redevelopment along the
corridors. When you have time, study the individual reports in
more detail. Click here for
