About Westwood
Westwood is a safe, tight-knit community that enjoys active, clean neighborhoods and public spaces. Natural and regional assets are used and appreciated by those living inside and outside the district. Commercial, retail, and grocery businesses serve residents along major corridors supported by streetscape and infrastructure improvements for pedestrians and bicyclists. Civic institutions are well-maintained and are spaces that foster intergenerational relationships.
Memphis 3.0 Update
Public Workshops

The Memphis 3.0 Comprehensive Plan is where community voices shape the city's future. Our comprehensive planning process is more than just a series of meetings and proposals; it's an opportunity for every Memphian to play a pivotal role in charting the course for our collective growth and prosperity. Participation isn't just encouraged—it's essential. Your input fuels the vision for a more vibrant, equitable, and resilient Memphis. By engaging in this process, you're not only shaping policies and projects; you're actively contributing to the fabric of our community, ensuring that every voice is heard and every perspective considered. Together, we're building a Memphis that reflects the aspirations and dreams of all its residents. Join us in shaping tomorrow, today.
