Lowly, unpurposeful and random as they may appear, sidewalk contacts are the small change from which a city’s wealth of public life may grow. ─Jane Jacobs

It’s hard to create a space that will not attract people, what is remarkable, is how often this has been accomplished. ─William H. Whyte

What is Placemaking? Placemaking is turning a neighborhood, town
or city from a place you can’t wait to get through to one you never want to leave.
Placemaking is the creation of a built environment that creates community, stimulates interaction, encourages entrepreneurship, fosters innovation and nurtures humanity.

What is Placemaking?
Placemaking is creating for everybody. The seed of democracy. Placemaking is the process of giving space a
story that is shared by many.
