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 so important, and how they are formed. Every spring, people around the nation host "Jane's Walks" in her honor.
The Urban Phoenix Project's 6th annual "Jane's Walk: Phoenix" will explore parts of downtown's Warehouse District that will be affected by the exciting new light rail line being planned down Central Avenue into South Phoenix.
Meet up at Block 23 (the block east of CityScape). More detailed meeting instructions TBA. The walk will end nearby at a local watering hole so we can continue the conversation informally.
