People Spots

People Spots are temporary platforms adjacent to sidewalks, typically within existing parking lanes. By expanding the sidewalks, they create seasonal space for outdoor seating and dining. As a placemaking tool, they also contribute to an increase of pedestrian volumes and help promote economic development in retail corridors.

The following are potential People Spots pilot locations:

N. Lincoln Ave. between N. Southport and N. Lakewood Ave. - Sponsored by SSA #27/Lakeview Chamber of Commerce
N. Clark St. and W. Olive Ave. - Sponsored by SSA #22/Andersonville Chamber of Commerce
E. 47th Street and S. Greenwood Ave. - Sponsored by SSA #47/Quad Communities Development Corporation
E. 47th Street and S. Champlain Ave. - Sponsored by SSA #47/Quad Communities Development Corporation
