"Cities have the capability of creating something for everybody, only because, and only when, they are created by everybody." - Jane Jacobs
Tony Garcia, co-author of "Tactical Urbanism: Short-Term Action for Long-Term Change" and Principal of Street Plans Collaborative (street-plans.com/), and Erin Barns, co-founder of neighborhood crowdresourcing platform ioby (ioby.org/) and 2012 Jane Jacobs Medal for New Technology and Innovation, take a deep dive into the democratizing of urban planning. Erin and Tony explore how residents and municipalities across the country are embracing Tactical Urbanism and new investment tools to design and build better neighborhoods together—and in the process, changing the way governments think about community engagement and placemaking.
