Subject: Hyde Park Needs Your Voice: Monday Community Meeting

Don't let City Hall decide our future without us. Help us write letters and submit your feedback before the May 1st deadline.

Tell City Hall “NO” to 7-story Zoning Proposal in Hyde Park City Hall is proposing significant zoning changes for Hyde Park Ave and River Street, including new developments up to 7 stories high. Our community has serious concerns about how this will impact our neighborhood’s character and quality of life. Why this matters: Neighborhood Impact: Potential for increased traffic congestion and a "canyon effect" on our streets. Environmental Concerns: No requirements for additional tree canopy or green space, worsening urban heat islands. Displacement Risks: Concerns over resident and business displacement and a lack of sufficient affordable housing requirements. Infrastructure: No additional parking requirements despite the increase in density. Get Involved Community Meeting: Join your neighbors this Monday (April 27) at The Pryde (57 Harvard Ave) between 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM. We’ll be sharing updates, discussing strategies for development without displacement, and writing letters together (plus free snacks!). Submit Your Feedback: City representatives will only count comments submitted via the official feedback form. Deadline: All comments must be submitted before May 1, 2026. Let’s make sure Hyde Park’s voice is heard! Click the button below to access the feedback form. Feedback Form
