CULTURAL DISTRICTS
“Urban, suburban, and rural communities are seeking strategies for walkable, accessible, civically engaging, job producing Districts: arts and innovation districts, university and medical districts and Main Streets. Our history of deindustrialization, automation, segregation and disinvestment are combined with a pent-up demand for places built for people instead of cars.”
