The 14th Street project aims to transform the thoroughfare into a 'complete street', accommodating pedestrians, bikers, delivery people, transit, and cars. This involves input from multiple stakeholders, including the Union Square Partnership, Department of Transportation, and local government. Plans build on prior proposals, focusing on enhancing connections between parks and surrounding streets. Core elements include establishing permanent improvements from the 14th Street Busway, initiated in 2020, to create a more functional and integrated urban space.
