The proposed site plan generally follows the original “Main Street Triangle” planned development approval, with significant updates including the reconfiguration of Crescent Park Circle, the removal of Jefferson Avenue as a vehicular street north of 142nd Street, and the elimination of the east Metra parking lot.
