MDRN Summer Walking Tour - Glencoe
Each year the Chaddick Institute's Municipal Design Review Network (MDRN) works together with a Chicago area community to develop a summer walking tour highlighting various elements of urban design. We're pleased to announce that the Village of Glencoe has volunteered to host this year's event! The mobile workshop will feature examples of community collaboration via public-private partnerships, restoration and preservation projects, and urban design review throughout the downtown area. The tour is free and open to municipal officials, architects, planners and anyone interested in urban design. Register here, or email mdrn@depaul.edu for more information. The group will meet at Village Hall (675 Village Court, Glencoe, Il 60022) in the Council Chambers on the second floor beginning at 9 a.m. for light breakfast, coffee, and networking.
