Join the Center for Urban and Regional Analysis for Tactical urbanism: Do little things mean a lot in cities? – A panel discussion.
This panel features academic experts, public officials and citizens who are trying to make tactical urbanism work to create a better future in Columbus, and beyond.
In many communities around the world, activists are creating small-scale interventions to improve the livability of urban environments – sometimes sanctioned, but sometimes not. These interventions are often temporary, serving as experiments to test potential enhancements prior to large-scale investment. They also demonstrate that thoughtful urban design at the building, block and street level can make cities work better for humans. Finally, they can build trust among conflicting interest groups, community leaders and city officials, setting the stage for more permanent change.
Panelists:
Amelia Costanzo - Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission
Jess Mathews - Place Makes & Open Streets Columbus
Elissa Schneider - Transit Columbus
Halina Steiner - Knowlton School
Moderator:
Harvey Miller, PhD – Director, Center for Urban and Regional Analysis
