When you think of a city you like, what comes to mind? Can a city be a work of art? How do parked cars serve pedestrians? Most of the interaction among people, bikes, and cars is unplanned. How does that happen? Why do people gather in some places and avoid others? Is it possible to create a neighborhood from the ground up? What is a “public space”? How can the design of public space promote or retard social interaction?

Jane Jacobs became one of America's most famed urbanists after preventing highways from carving up Manhattan and authoring "The Death and Life of Great American Cities". Few have been so central to our understanding of why walkable neighborhoods are important and how they are formed. Every spring, people around the nation host "Jane's Walks" in her honor. This year, the Urban Phoenix Project is teaming up with Local First Arizona's For(u)m to lead our 8th annual "Jane's Walk: Phoenix". We will be getting back to the basics, discussing Jane's four Generators of Diversity and her concept of Sidewalk Ballet as we stroll down 2nd Avenue from the Roosevelt Neighborhood to the Downtown Core.

Viña del Mar ha sido una ciudad que ha mutado bastante con el transcurso del tiempo, pasando desde la influencia de los pueblos aborígenes de changos y la cultura inca hasta llegar a la completa urbanización que vivimos hoy en día, toda traída de la mano de la industrialización, los magnates inmigrantes y sus negocios en el país y una nueva forma de concebir la ciudad como un exponente por excelencia del turismo en Chile, los invitamos a todos ustedes a conocer cómo es que partió el movimiento industrial y la génesis ciudadana en la Viña de la Mar, y así llegar a los cimientos de su historia, partiendo por el Tranque Sur, una de las áreas verdes que posee Forestal (uno de los cerros de Viña del Mar) hasta llegar al Reloj de Flores (una zona altamente turística en donde prevalece más historia de la que parece).
