Transform Space into Place.

Thanks so much for posting this video. Now I know the next stupid hippie bs to be forced on my city.

I live in Nashville TN and our mayors for the last three terms have been saying we need to be more like Portland.

Forget it! I wouldn't live in Portland if I were forced to relocate their under threat of death.

You people are the ignorant hippies that are responsibile for the destruction of what was a formerly great nation.

I'll come to your "place" and tell you this. Idiots.

I ride my bike through the sunflower intersection when I come home from work. It makes me happy.

hell yeah Portland.

The choice lies between property on the one hand and slavery, public or private, on the other. There is no third issue. Hilaire Belloc.

Design is not the problem. It would take care of itself if there was no way to profit from mere ownership of land which is the entire incentive for land speculation, all urban sprawl and all city design to accommodate the land owner's right to collect community created land values all of which is an unearned income to them. Taxing community created land values heavily as first suggested over a century ago would have ended sprawl and would have resulted in better designed and very compact cities.

We watched this video at the first meeting of San Diego City Repair -- sdcityrepair dot blogspot dot com. We intend to help more people make these things happen in their own neighborhoods--and we also seek help in transforming our own neighborhoods!

excellent initiative!

I am so grateful that City Repair is bringing awareness to community building, and is making such a big difference in our day to day lives.
