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.

Follow-up: Looks like Winstead didn't drop the dime on P&P.

Struck by the "Apparently" in P&P's nastygram, I emailed them yesterday to ask whether they knew Winstead had complained or whether they were just assuming that's what happened. No answer.

So this morning, I emailed Winstead (whom I don't know) to ask. He says no -- he never complained. He didn't see any violation (bench didn't even appear to be in public space -- it's very close to the building) but that DDOT must have measured and found one.
