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.

Seattle Times (Sunday Magazine)

The Pacific Northwest Magazine of the Seattle Times is one of the better Sunday newspaper magazines around, for newspapers not of the stature of the New York Times. Earlier in the year I mentioned a number of cover stories in this blog entry, "Seattle Times Sunday Magazine has many great stories about city, not suburban issues."

Here are some more:

-- A century at the Pike Place Market
-- Moving up by scaling down: Urban gritty or rural serene, smaller spaces are catching on
-- Street Signs: In graffiti, the disaffected join our civic dialogue
