Infrastructure Updates Have Begun

Let’s Renew the Avenue.

In 2026, the Oak Park Avenue Streetscape will replace and repair necessary infrastructure and upgrade the streetscape. This investment will strengthen and support area businesses and the surrounding neighborhood while preserving the historical context and value of this vital Hemingway District. The project is expected to be substantially completed by Thanksgiving 2026.
