Rethinking Space on our Main Streets and in Our Downtowns

Jonathan Berk, Vice President at Patronicity, presented by “Rethinking Space on our Main Streets and in Our Downtowns” on April 27, 2022 as part of Design Museum Week by Design Museum Everywhere.

Cities and towns across Massachusetts and around the world have discovered the latent opportunities that existed in their public spaces to create more vibrant, socially connected, joyful communities. This session looks at how communities are getting creative in uncovering and activating their vacant and often underutilized spaces using public art and tactical urbanism while directly engaging with their communities.
