Follow the Madison LakeWay Story! Madisonians from all our diverse communities appreciate our waterways and lakefronts, and John Nolen Drive is no exception—the John Nolen Drive Reconstruction Project and the Madison LakeWay Project—are converging to generate a premier gateway and lakefront! Read the full story of how these projects came to be: https://lnkd.in/gBxbv-eQ

Follow the Madison LakeWay Story Part 4: EQT By Design, along with the City of Madison, is proud to have assisted in bringing in diverse voices across Madison to ensure this new John Nolen/LakeShore gateway into Madison fosters well-being for all our residents and is a place where people from all backgrounds and walks of life, not only feel accepted but feel heard and seen. It will become a place accessible to all, where Indigenous histories are uplifted, Black joy can flourish, and our BIPOC voices are heard in its creation. #MadisonWI

Follow the Madison LakeWay Story Part 3: Each step, each block, was laid down through community engagement, peaking with the Monona Waterfront Challenge and John Nolen Drive Reconstruction. Communities from all over Madison were engaged with intention, with a special focus on Madison’s Black, Indigenous, and Other People of Color (BIPOC) populations. #MadisonWI

Don't let your interaction be abelist. Please don't: touch us without our consent; speak for us; assume what we need; tell us how to self-identify; ignore our accessibility requests; act surprised when we self-identify; talk to us like we don't understand. #Ableism #DisabilityAwareness

Follow the Madison LakeWay Story Part 2: Starting in 2012, five different projects have brought us to this point: Madison’s 2012 Downtown Plan, South Capitol Transit Oriented Development Plan, A Lake Front for All, Monona Waterfront Challenge (transforming into Madison LakeWay Project), and John Nolen Drive Reconstruction. #MadisonWI

Follow the Madison LakeWay Story, part 1: The John Nolen Drive and Madison Lake Way are two projects that didn’t come out of thin air, and the final results won’t be only informed by engineers or consultants. Instead, insight and needs have come from over ten years of studies, commissions, and deep community engagement, building to this point in time where plans are being finalized before the shovel meets the ground in late 2025. #MadisonWI #Lakeshore #community

Happy Read A Book Day! Here's one we enjoyed. What's been on your list lately? We always need new recommendations! "Fans of the renowned journalist and cultural critic will be happy to find Harriot's signature wit on full display. They will also be unsurprised that he pulls no punches. ... The worst part about Black AF History is that it needed to be published in the 21st century, that its stories aren't already part of our collective memory. The best part is that it exists, and we can all be grateful to Harriot for this engaging, well-researched, and frequently laugh-out-loud funny history that places the Black experience at center stage." https://lnkd.in/gf5cWJPR
