How to make downtown Akron more vibrant: New redevelopment plan offers many ideas

At the final meeting of the Downtown Akron Vision & Redevelopment plan, MKSK urban designers revealed a draft plan, which focuses on fiveareas of downtown that could be re-enlivened and redeveloped over a 10-year period. The ideas are based on resident-input gleaned throughout the year from meetings, surveys, interviews and interactive tools. MKSK, based in Columbus, will release a final plan in early 2018.
