Crandall Park South Street Identity


In Phase 1, small planteds will be installed at each corner, adding a sense of unity and datum to the neighborhood.


The Second Phase of the Crandall Park South Street Identity project aims to create a unified streetscape for the historic neighborhood in Youngstown. By highlighting the linear tree lawn spaces along the street, a visual link is created throughout the neighborhood. The experience is amplified for drivers, as a waving, undulating line of perennials is weaved throughout the linear space. 

Community stewardship is a vital part of the design as each homeowner is responsible for maintaining their respective section of the designed area, adding a sense of personal value and neighborhood ownership for residents.
