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.

Historic District Sign


Historic District Sign

I think street sign toppers like this one are much better ways to delineate historic and other districts that the types of signs used in DC.

They make neighborhood identity and the specific geography very clear.
