A comprehensive vision plan for Syracuse's future after removing the I-81 expressway, focusing on reconnecting communities and improving quality of life.
Status: Ongoing
Project Link: https://communitygrid.syr.gov/
In 2022, the City of Syracuse hired Dover, Kohl & Partners to lead the creation of a comprehensive vision plan for the future of Syracuse after removing the I-81 expressway through the heart of the city. This project is part of a substantial trend in U.S. cities that aims to reconsider our relationship with divisive urban freeways and create solutions — together with local communities — that will reconnect communities, improve quality of life and increase multi-mobility.

Testimonial
"Community engagement is the most important part of the process, and we're particularly keen on working with the community to create a shared vision for what can replace I-81. Collective Form has helped us reach a wider audience and provide new ways of interacting with the project."
- Josh Frank, Project Director at Dover, Kohl & Partners
