Wild Mile
将为芝加哥河打造新的居住、教育和休闲环境。该项目按照17英亩的水上生态园设计,旨在推进社区主导的重建城市生态的愿景,帮助加强邻里纽带,提供更清洁的水资源,并支持更有活力的生态系统。
A community-stewarded eco-park seeks to transform a branch of the Chicago river—from an industrial canal into an inviting habitat for wildlife and a living laboratory for education and research.

实现长久以来的美好愿景
A long-held vision comes to life
该项目坐落在古斯岛东侧,位于北支运河和转头水域。自2003年制定芝加哥中心区规划以来,该区域被设想为一种生态公园。2016年,

Wild Mile
愿景的第一步。
The Wild Mile will create a new environment for habitat, education, and recreation on the Chicago River. Designed as a 17-acre floating eco-park, it advances a community-led vision of renewed urban ecology that helps strengthen neighborhood connectivity, generate cleaner water, and support more vibrant ecosystems.

The project is located along the east side of Goose Island, on the North Branch Canal and Turning Basin. This area has been envisioned as a type of eco-park since the creation of the 2003 Chicago Central Area Plan. In 2016, Urban Rivers and SOM installed a 1,500-square-foot floating garden as a first step toward making the Wild Mile vision a reality. Since then, the project has evolved into a collaboration with the City of Chicago, O-H Community Partners, Near North Unity Program, Omni Ecosystems, Tetra Tech, and local community members providing input central to its goals, objectives, and priorities.

Wild Mile
融入了丰富的教育和社区功能空间规划。其中包括志愿者主导、技术驱动型的计划
River Rangers
,该计划招募公民科学家以记录并定期报告外来植物和野生动物。
Making the most of its proximity to more than 40 schools and academic institutions, the Wild Mile incorporates rich educational and community programming. These include a volunteer-led and technology-driven initiative, River Rangers, which recruits “citizen scientists” to document and provide regular reports on reintroduced plants and wildlife.

完工之后,
Wild Mile
将把古斯岛沿线芝加哥河原本工业化的人造支流变成一座生态公园,造福于人类、野生动物和环境。凭借一系列水上花园、带公共走道的森林、皮划艇码头和其他配套设施,该项目旨在出于公益目的复原河流。
When completed, the Wild Mile will transform the formerly industrialized, human-made branch of the Chicago River along Goose Island into an eco-park that serves people, wildlife, and the environment. With a series of floating gardens, forests with public walkways, kayak docks, and other amenities, the project is designed to restore the river as a public trust.
