Description

Great neighborhoods don't just happen.


The Great Neighborhood Book-A Do It Yourself Guide to Placemaking explains how any community can be improved and enlivened, not by vast infusions of cash, not by government, but by the people who live there.


Through real-life stories, this book addresses such challenges as traffic control, crime, comfort and safety, and developing economic vitality. Offering compelling evidence of how people in communities have enhanced their own neighborhoods through "Placemaking" -- the PPS term for the process of transforming public space -- this exciting guide offers inspiring real-life examples that show the magic that happens when individuals take small steps, and motivate others to make change.
