Ah you make me feel like re-reading The Great Good Place. It’s been about ten years. Almost changed to urban planning after reading that. Who knew a book about third places and city design could make a 20-something girl cry. Explained why so many of the places in the US (towns, city centers, suburbs) feel so inhuman. So happy in the recent decades many places are coming around to different thinking, partly through amazing things like this project, Interplace.
Sounds like a book I need to read. I've long had a lust for urban planning and design. It's what fueled my motivation to go back and get a degree. I chose sustainable transportation because the movement of people and goods plays an oversized role in determining how land us used...and abused. You're right, there's a growing sense that it's time to reclaim public space for our human right to move. That is at the heart of Interplace. Thanks for the note, Jodie!
