Advocacy
Green the Gap / I-5 Lid Coalition
Green the Gap / I-5 Lid Coalition campaigns for a park lid over I-5 through Barrio Logan to physically reconnect the neighborhood bisected by the freeway in 1963. Aligned with SANDAG's $3.3 million federal study launched in 2024, the coalition pursues the infrastructure-reversal logic that animated the 1970 Chicano Park occupation.
