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.

Negative review (of the inside) of Eastern Market re: Annapolis

Just came across this article, "Mixed reviews for Site Realty market in D.C.: Patrons, vendors evaluate a D.C. market run by the company recommended for Annapolis' Market House," while doing some research for a tour I'm co-leading this weekend. It's from the Baltimore Sun and will only be available online for a few more days.

The company that has the contract to manage Eastern Market is trying for the same contract for the Annapolis Market, which is currently closed. So Annapolis sent a group of people over to Eastern Market to check it out.

Site visits, what a concept!
