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.

Why do candidate supporters put election signs in front of abandoned-vacant-nuisance properties?

This is something that I've always wondered about. What possesses people to have their candidates associated with disinvestment and abandonment, unless we are supposed to think that this particular candidate, if victorious, will change things?
