Weekly Placemaking Round-Up No. 1 - Project for Public Spaces

Posted November 19, 2016 - 08:43

Here is the first issue this new weekly roundup of news, ideas, opportunities, and more - a curated list of content for placemakers by placemakers - from the Project for Public Spaces.

Editor's note: Notice anything different? At PPS, we are always experimenting with how we can better reflect the breadth and diversity of the placemaking movement. That's why we are launching this new weekly roundup of news, ideas, opportunities, and more—a curated list of content for placemakers by placemakers.
