Phase 1 Installation Celebration

Chicagoans Flock to Wabash Ave to See & Experience Glow-Up

August 2024 Project Update: After nearly a decade of dedication and perseverance, two Kickstarter campaigns, private donations, and additional funding from Comcast and Gertie, The Wabash Lights is thrilled to share that Phase 1 (the first 50 feet of light) has been successfully installed. Thanks to all who joined us for the “Turn on Wabash” launch event on 8/15, and to our project partners, supporters, funders, and believers for helping us realize this significant milestone. Working in partnership with Gertie Chicago as a part of their ‘Next Stop: Chicago’ Campaign provided our team with a significant boost in arriving at our Phase 1 vision and now, our Phase 2 journey begins!
