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.

Fairfax Connector bus in the new red, yellow, and white painting scheme

At the conference, BeyondDC mentioned that he thought the new painting scheme for the Fairfax County bus system, called the Connector, is striking and attractive.

I have to agree. It shows the way for WMATA maybe...But Fairfax needs to extend this painting scheme by changing their bus stop signage so that it will be similarly exciting.
