By expanding the areas that are eligible for TOD to include zones around busy bus corridors, the city could help spur investment in low-income neighborhoods.

Other upgrades of the recent rehab include new lights, reconfigured stairs, high-def security cameras, and motorized doors that meet ADA guidelines.

The group’s stances against road expansion and for more bike-walk funding may have been a factor.

CDOT's final recommendations include switching the traffic circle to two-way traffic, unifying the two portions of the Logan Square green space, and rerouting Kedzie to create a new plaza.
