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.

There was a great article in this Wednesday's (3/7/18) NYT food section about cooking with a community geothermal oven in Iceland.

... I do think, at least with detached houses, that thermal heating options need to be developed. But they aren't cheap. Close to $50,000. DK what their estimated useful life is.
