More than 30 organizations and 700 children, parents, and caregivers co-created the nation's first child-friendly city map!
Free maps are now available at locations such at the Convention and Visitors Bureau, the Visitors' Center on the Pearl Street Mall, Chautauqua, recreation centers, and more. A digital version of the map will be available September 2019. (Please note that the map shown here is for display purposes only; it will not print well.)
