The Elevate State Plan is a forward-thinking vision for the State Street corridor in Chicago’s Loop community. Elevate State was originally a collaboration between Chicago Loop Alliance (CLA), Special Service Area #1-2015, Chicago Loop Alliance Foundation, a diverse consultant team, stakeholders, and the community (you!).
After a hiatus in 2020 and 2021, the planning process transformed into a part of the Central Area Recovery Plan led by Urban Land Institute Chicago, the City of Chicago Department of Planning and Development, and Chicago Loop Alliance. The panel’s final recommendations and report were released in December of 2023.
