Description
Frogtown Green is a resident-led advocacy group that protects and maintains neighborhood green spaces as well as promotes sustainable, healthy, and creative development with-in District 7. By creating and protecting Frogtown’s green spaces Frogtown Green gives the community a unique opportunity to emerge from its dire economic circumstances and to re-build itself as a lively and sustainable community. This project will report on alternative and sustainable uses of vacant land in Frogtown that will bring a boost to the community. A student researcher will need to (1) collect data specifically relating to the Frogtown population, (2) produce a final report that recommends sites for future parks and green space locations, as well as appropriate and adequate amenities for those places.
