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.

Bicycle lift in Trondheim, Norway

From Slate, "How Norway coddles its bikers."



I suppose this is the kind of stuff that would drive Mary Peters ("The Folly of Higher Gas Taxes") wild. But drivers get most of the coddling now, and it isn't questioned, or even considered "coddling."
