Revitalizing community gardens, markets, parks

H* F*

- Whether you’re a planning professional or a neighborhood advocate; you can
learn the techniques of making a great public space in your community.

Project for Public Spaces, an international leader in the design and
management of public space, is offering a two-day course on how to
revitalize places in your community through our unique approach to place
making.  Inspired by our popular book, How to Turn a Place Around, the
course will promote a deeper understanding of what makes public spaces
function and PPS's innovative methods of analyzing them.

Set in the heart of New York City, participants work in small teams to
observe and analyze places in Greenwich Village and Union Square that
illustrate pertinent issues, give insights and encourage them to see the
sites from a user's point of view.
