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.

I like the juxtaposition of a Spanish-language advertisement and an African-American, urban-oriented, retail advertisement. It communicates a lot about trends in retail in center cities and inner ring suburbs. (On Rte. 1 in Mount Rainier)
