    PROPOSED LAKESHORE IMPROVEMENTS PREPARED FOR THE LAKESHORE IMPROVEMENT COMMITTEE, INC. GRAND AVENUE TO NORTH AVENUE CHICAGO, IL architecture + planning + interior design 224 SOUTH MICHIGAN AVENUE. SUITE 1400 CHICAGO, ILLINOIS 60604 1 | 9/08/2014 VOICE 312-554-1400 FAX 312-554-14012 VOA Associates Incorporated is honored to submit a proposed plan for consideration as part of the study currently being conducted for Chicago’s lakefront between Grand and Hollywood Avenues. VOA Associates Incorporated has designed a new master plan for Chicago’s lakefront between Grand Avenue and North Avenue. The proposed Lakeshore Improvements have been endorsed and are sponsored by the Lakefront Improvement Committee, Inc. The original version of the plan was developed by VOA in 2006 in anticipation of the Burnham Plan Centennial of 2009. VOA was inspired by our staff’s strong connection to the lakefront as well as our continuing interest in the vision contained the Burnham Plan for Chicago, and by various proposals that had evolved in the community concerning improvements to this portion of the lakefront. Our plan has been presented to numerous individuals and groups over the past several years, and was recently presented to the public at the Chicago Community Trust’s On the Table event. Two driving factors are key inspirations for the Lakeshore Improvements plan. First, Lake Shore Drive is aging and requires modernization to improve safety, mobility, connections and accessibility. There are several segments of Lake Shore Drive that have become ongoing safety concerns. Examples include the dangerous S-curve south of Oak Street Beach and the bottleneck-prone and dangerous area where it accesses Chicago Avenue.
