In many cases... we don't have "parking problems..." we have "parking perception problems." Many wouldn't dream of parking 1,100ft away from the store they're going to on main street, yet parking that far or further away from a store in any shopping mall is expected.

LOVE this #outdoor #coworking idea! Trying to imagine what a #smalltown #popup or #lighterquickercheaper version could look like and where it could go in my town. Anyone else seen a good model?

May 2021 Vermont Placemaking Meet-Up: Active Streets communityworkshopllc.com/events-feed/ma…

Of all places where public meetings are romanticized, #VT is probably tops. Cheers to The Boston Globe for calling out the need to look honestly at the flaws, though Zoom is not a panacea. What would it look like if we radically rethought #public #involvement in #localdemocracy?

Tomorrow! Free #vt #placemaking #meetup for 60min of #creative, inspiring, utterly do-able #placemaking ideas for #economicrecovery & growing #localbusinesses in #smalltowns and #rural places. Join #communityworkshopllc and AARP Vermont! communityworkshopllc.com/events-feed/ju…

🎉The grantees are here! AARP Livable Communities is excited to announce the largest group of #AARPCommunityChallenge grants ever - $3.2 mil to 244 grantees for quick-action projects that will create more livable communities for residents of all ages. Learn more: spr.ly/6016yefT0

I love when public transit systems troll highways;

once we recognize that urban design is, at its core, the design of human relations, we begin to understand why Americans are suffering a crisis of loneliness and why our lack of beautiful, functional public spaces is an urgent matter of public health

“Hostile architecture imagines a model citizen who is expensively caffeinated, constantly perched and poised, never in need of anyone or anything to lean on, forever ready to get up and go earn and spend.” 💯 nytimes.com/2021/10/12/mag…
