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.

An interesting way to protest crime

In Silhouette on Yahoo! News Photos.jpgVenezuelan students and opposition sympathizers lie down on a street to protest against violent crimes in Caracas April 22, 2006. Thousands lied down in police-style chalk silhouettes representing the people who have been killed in violent incidents in recent years in the country, demanding President Hugo Chavez's government to increase security.
