Chicago’s rainbow crosswalks are making a comeback in Northalsted—now with Progress Pride designs
Chicago has started repainting the rainbow crosswalks in Northalsted—and the first one now reflects the Progress Pride Flag’s inclusive design. The project will restore all 14 of the neighborhood’s colorful intersections, which were temporarily removed this summer during routine street maintenance. Every crosswalk should be finished by the end of November, weather permitting, said Kevin Barbeau, executive director of the Northalsted Business Alliance.

Chicago’s rainbow crosswalks are back—and more inclusive than ever!

The first Progress Pride design is up at Buckingham & Halsted, with another coming to Cornelia, a trans flag at Melrose, and 11 rainbow crossings from Belmont to Bradley.

Pride. Progress. Visibility.

Lori Cannon was a true ally in Illinois from her organizing days to founding Open Hand Chicago — she led the way with chutzpah and humor.

My deepest condolences to her loved ones as we mourn the passing of a friend of the community in our state.

May her memory be a blessing.
