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.

Bicycles and fashion

The editor of Self Magazine, Lucy Danziger, rides a bicycle rather than use a car service provided by the publisher, Conde Nast. See "An Editor Is Trading Car Service for a Bike" from the New York Times.

And they have nice bicycle rack facilities in the Conde Nast building, providing an example that other commercial property owners and managers can learn from.
