Congress for New Urbanism Legacy Project

 Each year, in conjunction with its annual conference, the Congress for New Urbanism invites municipalities and neighborhood organizations within the Congress's host region to apply for pro-bono technical assistance from leading urban design firms. Each expert-led Congress Legacy Project is aimed at empowering local leaders, advocates, and residents in underserved communities to implement New Urbanist principles that help people and businesses in their communities thrive. Through public engagement and collaboration, CNU’s Legacy Projects strive to demonstrate the power of great urban design beyond the boundaries of each selected community, and targeted communities experience both short-term progress and long-lasting momentum.  

Camp Washington has been selected as a recipient for one of the Legacy Projects for the 2024 Conference in Cincinnati to help the neighborhood organizations develop a business district vision map.  This vision will be  complete with branding strategies, infill locations and ideas, and small-scale development projects.  With this map, the community can advocate for our growth and ensure that developers of all scales are completing projects with the community's vision at the forefront.  To accomplish this goal, Congress for New Urbanism has hired ARUP, Street Plans, and Perkins + Will to build a design plan for the neighborhood.  These companies will be hosting various community engagement sessions during the week February 26th – March 1st, 2024.  It is so important that every voice is heard!  Kick off party takes place on Monday night from 6p-8p at the Well (2868 Colerain Avenue, Cincinnati, OH 45225).

Final CNU Report

We would love to hear back from you all on your thoughts on the report, so we can better implement projects and create partnerships on various opportunities.  With that being said, we have put a brief feedback survey together.  We ask that you please read the report and provide us with your feedback.  Once we see the feedback and what areas everyone is interested in, then we will be reaching out to those interested in diving deeper into the project.
