Kickflips, Ollies, & Alley-Oops, Ahead! Evanston Skate Park Awarded OSLAD Grant

Grateful and stoked to report that OSLAD funds were awarded to Evanston’s Skate Park, and we are looking forward to “rolling” into the construction phase come 2023. Located at the Northeast corner of Twiggs Park, near Ashland / Green Bay Road / Noyes, this has been a stellar project to work on with our Evanston neighbors and the local skater community. Partnering with the fine folks at CBBEL and Spohn Ranch out of California has been equally energizing and gnarly. We’ve learned so much from all parties involved and have had a lot of fun broadening our skater lexicon!

Moving the needle from engagement and visioning to implementation and construction is a prime focus of Teska. It’s about the little details and big picture -- and the truth is, money matters. Cheers to all the OSLAD grant recipients and the continual journey to secure funds and achieve placemaking realities.
