For three days in April, neighborhood residents, elected officials and staff participated in a community visioning exercise. The event focused on several neighborhoods immediately north of downtown Lafayette. During the charrette, Ball State University design students generated graphic expressions of community ideas after brainstorming and talking with area residents and leaders. This website has been created to display the ideas and drawings from the charrette process.
