POPGrove

Transforming an empty lot into a bright and welcoming public open space like its sister POPCourts! project.

Planned by the West Side Health Authority and designed by LJC, this City of Chicago-owned lot in West Garfield Park caters to family-oriented activities through a three-part design that includes a shaded grove along the sidewalk, active and passive recreation spaces in the center, and a natural playscape in a rear yard.
