Lightfoot and city leadership today announced the Central City Recovery Roadmap, a guide to the revitalization of Chicago’s greater downtown area and street activations across the downtown area that encourages Chicago residents and visitors to come back downtown this summer and fall. "Our city cannot fully bounce back from the pandemic until the cultural, retail and financial engines that power our economy are able to return at full capacity," said Chicago Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot. "From introducing a new set of street activations to get residents outdoors and encourage them to support our businesses to working closely with scores of civic organizations and other stakeholders to ensure a solid recovery, our city is more than prepared to welcome residents and visitors alike back to a thriving downtown. Taken together, these initiatives and collaborative approach to economic recovery will help our downtown and our city become stronger and more resilient than ever before." The Central City Recovery Roadmap, issued by the City of Chicago and the Chicago Central Area Commission (CCAC), coordinates implementable actions across sectors to achieve a strong reopening this summer that will guide Chicago into full recovery over the next several years.
