Thank you for this thoughtful question! Sidewalk accessibility is a priority for this Comprehensive Plan. We would love to hear more about your experience navigating Edgewater's sidewalks and any other context you can provide. Come to our Community Workshop on February 8th to speak to mobility experts and provide more input on similar topics. If you are unable to attend, please fill out our Phase 3 Questionnaire, located here!

Why are the sidewalks so narrow?

AC asked over 1 year ago

Thanks for the question. Most of the City of Edgewater's current housing stock was developed in the 1950's if not before, so sidewalks were a little different in those times. You can also see the different areas of development of the City as the sidewalks are different widths or even in different locations based on different time periods they were developed. The City has been working to update sidewalks with new development. Hope this helps but please reach out if this does not answer your question.
Share Hey there - I recall a couple of years ago that Edgewater planned to redesign 25th Ave between Sheridan and Benton, and redo the parking lot and signage at 25th and Sheridan. Is this still happening?
