Presentation

Tuesday, November 9 - 6:30pm

Dove Conference Center

130 West Mason Street


This Tuesday, November 9th, the Enos Park Neighborhood Improvement Association will host a presentation of the Master Plan developed by Mansur and Lakota to revitalize our neighborhood. We believe this plan can become a template for the future renovation and revitalization of all of Springfield's older neighborhoods.

We hope you'll join us to see what the future can be. We have asked all the aldermen to join us at the Dove Center at 6:30 p.m. following their Committee of the Whole meeting at the municipal center. Please let them know you feel this is an important research document and encourage them to attend the presentation. Look forward to seeing you next Tuesday.

Steve Combs, President
Enos Park Neighborhood Improvement Association
