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.

WMATA Riders Advisory Committee meets tonight

From "Metro committee seeks public input," in today's Examiner:

Passengers wanting to comment on the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority’s rail system can speak out tonight.

Metro’s Riders’ Advisory Council will hold a public workshop at 7:30 p.m. inside the transit agency’s headquarters at 600 5th St. NW.

“Anytime we can get the public involved is a good thing,” riders’ committee chairman Michael Snyder said. “We are hoping to hear from different people who are excited about different issues.” Snyder said the committee will also take suggestions about which issues and projects it should push the system’s board of directors to address.
