This first project will focus on the reconstruction of the alley between LBJ and Guadalupe from Hopkins to E Hutchison St (approximately 450 ft.) The preliminary design evaluated concepts Identified in the 2018 Main Street Advisory Board/Burditt planning grant for the redevelopment of Kissing Alley.
