So much potential in using our public spaces for recovery. Watch Seaside for an al fresco summer as the town creates an outdoor atmosphere for shops, restaurants and guests. The walkable town is uniquely built for it. There will be some problems no doubt, but I am excited to see these adaptations taking place locally.
THE RECOVERY WILL HAPPEN IN PUBLIC SPACE
"... These ideas are not that radical. Many cities have now opened roadways to pedestrians and cyclists as a means to provide additional space for social distancing throughout the city. The best examples have created networks that help people get where they need to go without crowding into public transit. A growing number of cities, like Tampa, Florida, and Cincinnati, Ohio, have opened road space to struggling restaurants, as they reopen at a much reduced capacity. Rockland, Maine, plans to reopen its entire Main Street outdoors. Montreal, Quebec, has become the first North American city to announce that it would implement “superblocks” in their streets, modeled after Barcelona’s well-known initiative."
