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.

Oak Park Inn: American Owners

Many of the motels in the south are owned by people of South Asian descent. Apparently not everyone is happy with the idea. (Note that this property is being redeveloped. At this point, all that remains is the sign.)

The postcard image below is of the motel in better days.
