| The University Cultural Center Association (UCCA) will begin construction of the Midtown Loop Greenway, a project designed to improve the pedestrian experience on Kirby, John R., Canfield, and Cass. This summer, roadway and sidewalk construction will take place on Kirby from Cass to John R, and on John R. from Kirby to Canfield. For more details on this project, see the UCCA website. Coincidental to the UCCA project is the Detroit Public Library's project to renovate the Children's wing at the corner of Kirby and Cass. Construction for the Midtown Loop Phase II is scheduled to begin on Monday April 16, 2012. The decorative concrete path of Phase II will follow Canfield Avenue along the north side of the street from Cass Avenue to John R Street, and continue south along the east side of John R Street to Mack Avenue. The curb will be realigned to provide additional greenway amenities including lighting, signage, site furnishings and landscape improvements. Construction will begin at the corner of Cass and Canfield. Two-way traffic will be maintained throughout the construction operations.
