Public Policy

Elevated Chicago is a new initiative formed to promote racial equity, prosperity and resiliency in Chicago communities by using equitable transit-oriented development – or eTOD – as the catalyst for change.Led by a collaborative of nonprofit, public and private organizations, Elevated Chicago aims to turn the ½-mile around transit stations into racially equitable centers for climate resiliency, health and culture. Our work is guided by the core principles of adaptability, impact, inclusion, innovation and transparency. By enabling community-driven development, Elevated Chicago will position station areas as civic assets where programming and the built environment converge to create nodes of opportunity and connection across the region's vast transit system. Our work has started within the half-mile radius around seven Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) or eTOD hubs, located in the following areas: Green Line South | California – Pink Line | Kedzie Corridor | Logan Square – Blue Line.
