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.

"Biking" the dog

This isn't the greatest photo, but yesterday I witnessed a woman "biking" her dog using a Capital Bikeshare bicycle. She rode from around Pennsylvania Avenue SE down to Constitution Avenue NE and back.
