Franklin Street Parklet
The Franklin Street Parklet is a collaborative project between the City of Ellsworth and Heart of Ellsworth, aimed at transforming a small downtown street into a vibrant, inclusive, and people-centered public green space. Located in front of Ellsworth City Hall, Franklin Street becomes a seasonal pop-up gathering place with seating, greenery, and space for community events and social connection.
Community engagement
Through a series of community engagement opportunities, the project invites residents, organizations, businesses, and visitors to help shape its long-term vision. Together, the community is reclaiming this urban space for public benefit, ensuring the final design reflects shared values, needs, and creativity.
