Rebuilding Place in the Urban Space

"A community’s physical form, rather than its land uses, is its most intrinsic and enduring characteristic." [Katz, EPA] This blog focuses on place and placemaking and all that makes it work--historic preservation, urban design, transportation, asset-based community development, arts & cultural development, commercial district revitalization, tourism & destination development, and quality of life advocacy--along with doses of civic engagement and good governance watchdogging.

Google Maps Mania

Yesterday's New York Times has a good article about Google Maps, "A Journey to a Thousand Maps Begins With an Open Code," with some good links and ideas, including to a blog on Google Mapping, Google Maps Mania, and a mention of www.ning.com, "which automates the tools needed to create a Google-based map so almost anyone can make one."
