Planning Initiatives

There are several exciting planning initiatives currently underway in Philadelphia:

 

Community Plans:
Planning isn't confined to the citywide level.  In community planning, residents work with professional city planners to craft a vision for the growth and continuous improvement of their neighborhood.  Take a look below to see what some Philadelphia communities have imagined for their future. (Plans were prepared by PCPC unless denoted by an asterisk (*). Those plans were prepared by community-based organizations and the plans are supported by PCPC staff.)
