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.

Speaking of tourism promotion

Yesterday's New York Times has a special Sunday magazine supplement on travel. A advertorial section on state-based tourism has many examples of tourism promotion advertising from other states. There are some good ideas there, and you might get a sense for why I am so critical about DC's efforts. Oh well, something to do a class project on for grad school.
