Historically an alleyway serving the backs of businesses, Glencoe’s Tudor Court has ‘grown up’ to a full-fledged street, providing access to local businesses and Writers Theatre. When presented with a need to improve the roadway, the Village turned to the community for inspiration. Teska led the concept planning thru construction documentation and construction oversight for this space, including coordination with staff, advisory committee, elected officials, businesses, and neighbors. The result is a street space that prioritizes places for people.
