On October 10, 2019, THE PLANNED AGRICULTURAL DISTRICT (PAD): A VISION FOR WEST GARFIELD, was awarded the 2019 DANIEL BURNHAM AWARD, an award recognizing master planning or implementation of a master plan.
"This masterplan focuses on encouraging mixed use development, the creation of vibrant public spaces, and defining an enhanced neighborhood identity for West Garfield Park. We believe that all people deserve the right to a livable community. We hope to provide a new framework for any community to redefine and rebuild without systemic roadblocks that have allowed years of neglect and disinvestment."
Participants on the project include: Michael Kmak, AIA; Billy Raleigh, AIA; Timothy Walser, Assoc. AIA, all from CannonDesign. This project also won an AIA Chicago 2018 Design Excellence Award for Unbuilt Forward, Special Recognition.
