Mason Square Public Activation Plan, Springfield MA, USA
THE CHALLENGE: Activate nine storefronts and the surrounding public space in a MassDevelopment TDI District.
HOW WE ADDRESSED IT:
Listening sessions with business owners and community members
Advocacy materials to support neighbor-led action
A customized tactical urbanism toolkit that simplifies the City of Springfield's existing permitting processes
SURPRISE! What began as a storefront activation became a permitting roadmap, making it easier for any neighbor to take action in their community.
