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.

According to "As the Wheel Turns, Ratings Spike for GRTC TV" from Style Weekly, the Richmond area transit service sponsors a well viewed television show on the local NBC station. Seems like something that should be done in the DC region... From the article:

“Life in Motion” runs from 12:30 to 1 p.m. the first Thursday of the month on NBC 12 and has trounced the competition. Only “The Young and the Restless” had more network viewers in the Richmond-Petersburg metro area during February’s broadcast. It beat out “Family Feud,” “The Tyra Banks Show” and “Jeopardy! 2.”
