Mirroring the plight of many mid-western cities, South Bend has seen a decline in key industrial employers and an accompanying decline in population. Working with the City of South Bend in a bi-lingual, public charrette process, Torti Gallas developed a market-based strategic revitalization plan for the two principal corridors on South Bend’s West Side - the 3-mile Lincoln Way Corridor and the 3.5 mile Western Avenue Corridor.

Thanks to Rob Steuteville and the Congress for the New Urbanism for a great article on this truly transformative project!
