The Greektown Neighborhood Partnership is working on a “Monroe Streetscape Transformation Project.”
The project would allow the partnership to occasionally close down certain streets to cars and make them more people-friendly. Some of these changes include expanding pedestrian zones, large landscaping projects, increasing lighting for visibility and new signature signage.
