Pilsen is a neighborhood located in the residential Lower West Side community in Chicago. In the late 19th century it was inhabited by Germans, Irish, Czech, Polish and Lithuanian immigrants. Mexican immigrants and Latinos became a majority in 1970 as the neighborhood served as a port of entry.

Yet Pilsen sprints forward as a “Think and Do” community. Come hear Patricia Saldaña Natke, Principal of Urbanworks, present an inspiring master plan and recent lasting change through Transit Oriented Development, a new student dormitory at the Pink Line Stop, planning visions for a Green Trail “ Paseo”, proposed cultural anchors, and connectivity to the Chicago River.
