Jeanne Gang’s Proposal To Transform Chicago’s Rundown Cicero Into a Thriving Neighborhood
“Like many areas throughout the country, Cicero, Illinois is blighted with a large percentage of foreclosed and rundown properties. As part of the MOMA exhibition Foreclosed: Rehousing the American Dream, Jeanne Gang has created a new vision for the area which could transform it into a thriving and healthy neighborhood. The Garden in the Machine is a proposal that uses nature and technology to improve the land, while combining housing and jobs within new, flexible live/work structures interwoven with a variety of public green spaces.”
