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.

New Year's #4 -- Get Urban!

002Kyle Ezell, a city planner in Columbus, Ohio, came up with a good idea and now he's got a pretty good gig going with his "Get Urban" personae, books, etc. Too bad "Rebuilding Place" doesn't have quite the same ring.

Let's Get Urban for 2006!
