Two of the country’s most prominent urban thinkers, @bruce_katz and @Richard_Florida, offer a bold plan for inclusive and resilient recovery from Covid that’s tailor-made for Philly. Could a $250 million “Philadelphia Regeneration Fund” be in our future? bit.ly/3jPvG8L – at Philadelphia, PA

We asked people what their one hope/wish for Kensington would be. This is the latest in our efforts to stabilize and beautify the vacant lot at Kensington & Tusculum w @Shift_Capital @PennPraxis @HingeCollective but in a way that builds on our traditional approach to vacant land.

This is an interesting conversation about sustainable #communitydesign funding and practice models with @GiladMeron @bcWORKSHOP @HingeCollective @gensler_design at @ACDtweets @NDCMaryland #acdreverb #ndc50
Bryan C Lee inspires through words and example to promote the value of Design as Protest. “When we understand where the power comes from we can design in a way that addresses that...If we know where the system applies force, we can apply force back.” #designasprotest #acdreverb
Dr Sharon E Sutton gives us context for the grassroots community design efforts, “I could be giving last nights news report, but I’m talking about 1970. Know your history....because we all know it repeats itself.” #ACDReverb

Safety is the sole reason why #VisionZeroPHL is so important. Human lives are the priority. Heart broken to hear stories of kids as young as 7 months dying because of #speeding on #RooseveltBoulevard. We can do better @bcgp

Stephanie Wall from @PECCaresPhilly makes great point about communicating w/community: don’t come to them with a completed plan that starts tomorrow. Ask for their input and mean it. #VisionZeroPHL @bcgp

Why #VisionZeroPHL ? @tychenemesis reminds us that we all makes stakes, people are vulnerable, and speed kills.
