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.

Urban bicycling...

From the Austin American-Statesman shopping newsletter:


Tired of talking about high prices at the pump? Mellow Johnny's, Lance Armstrong's new downtown commuter-focused bike shop, is on a mission to prove pump prices irrelevant. The store features bike valet services, showers, a café for your espresso needs and a plethora of bikes ranging from hip commuter to rugged dirt. They also stock quality cycling clothing and a variety of bike baskets to carry home wares from your next downtown shopping spree. 400 Nueces Street.
