Camiros’ neighborhood plans identify the unique qualities of a place, as well as the needs and desires of its residents in order to synthesize a strategic vision, implementation tools, and direction for future projects. Our neighborhood plans interpret and refine the broader policies of a city’s comprehensive plan at the neighborhood scale, with particular attention to the day-to-day quality of life demands of each neighborhood we work in.
This quality of life approach, pioneered by Camiros (with the assistance of the Local Initiatives Support Corporation in Chicago), has come to form the foundation of a planning model advocated in communities throughout the country. Our neighborhood plans employ both physical and strategic components in responding to each community’s specific issues, placing particular emphasis on concepts of neighborhood organization and design.
