9th Street Pedestrian Mall Enhancements

The SEOPW CRA proudly announced a transformative beautification initiative to revitalize the neighborhood and draw visitors to the once-blighted area. As a signature project of the SEOPW CRA is initiating the redevelopment of the NW 9th Street Pedestrian Mall. With an initial investment of $300,000 in landscape architecture services provided by Hood Design Studio, Inc., the project aligns with the SEOPW CRA's commitment to improving the quality of life for residents, fostering community unity, and creating safe, vibrant public spaces. The improvement will bring new energy to the area, restoring a sense of pride and connection among residents while inviting visitors to experience the dynamic cultural and community-driven atmosphere. The SEOPW CRA intends to allocate $15 million for the project.
