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.

Vision Zero Conference in New York CIty: October 10th-11th

I am a strong proponent of conferences like this one, as a way to build the capacity and knowledge base of advocates, and support for change within communities.

Note that I came across a slew of helpful resources, from the Center for Transportation Studies at the University of Minnesota:

-- Toward Zero Deaths National Strategy on Highway Safety

From Transportation Alternatives:

It’s not too late to join hundreds of activists, planners, and policy leaders at the nation’s premier Vision Zero conference!

Want a seat at the table? Register here!

View our full schedule of exciting topics ranging from how to win advocacy campaigns to on-the-ground tours of New York’s streetscape.

Vision Zero is not just a policy goal—it’s an imperative made possible by people like you. It is crucial that we continue to identify and support the most effective strategies to eliminate every traffic-related death and serious injury.

Join stakeholders from around the world and participate in the bold and forward-thinking conversations that will help make Vision Zero a reality.
