Special Saturday
Event To Encourage Shopping and Dining in
Shorewood
The Shorewood Business Improvement District is pleased
to stage its third and final Streetscape Saturday on June 21. Our day-long
Streetscape Saturdays events throughout the business district along Oakland Ave.
and Capitol Dr. have put a new spin on shopping and dining in Shorewood. Shop
Shorewood: Spend the Day is our motto for buying locally and making sure area
businesses not only survive, but thrive, during the streetscaping project. Many
thanks for supporting local Shorewood businesses!

The Village of Shorewood
initiated its streetscaping project last fall to include all of Oakland Ave.
from Edgewood Ave. at Shorewood’s southern border to Glendale Ave. at the north
boundary. Many communities and neighborhoods have reported that streetscape
projects jump-start business traffic and energize economic development
opportunities. It is anticipated that Shorewood will be no exception! Later this
summer, the business district will experience the benefits of improved street
lighting, enhanced crosswalk safety features, new benches, planters, and trash
receptacles, and landscaping beautification. Way-finding signs/kiosks and public
art are being discussed for the future. After the streetscaping project is
completed, Shorewood’s new “look” will be unveiled in late summer.
