Work on the Trager MicroForest is wrapping up to make way for the holidays and cold weather. Looking forward to completing Phase 1 in early 2025 with more than 60 additional trees, 100s of shrubs and final touches on the paths and lighting. Happy New Year!

Nature can be part of the solution to heat mitigation, even in cities! Read the #CoolingCities report fr @NaturalAreasNYC. And keep an eye on our urban #greening research projects in Louisville, @GreenHeartLou and the Trager MicroForest Project at Founder's Square. @UDStudioLou

Great work being presented by this summer’s cohort of student interns working on projects to improve the community. First up we’re the Food Justice and Beargrass Creek teams.
Thanks to the local chapters of the architecture, planning and landscape architecture professions, Louisville Metro and the attendees. Great event.

Intersection of 5th and Breckinridge, 1926 v 2022 (from UofL Digital Collections). It is sad how many corner stores and other community anchors have been destroyed for parking.
I asked @godigahole in Portland to show me what urban green corridors can look like and he did that and much more, providing inspiration for how we can make Louisville a greener, healthier and more connected city. https://t.co/viAYaw4Dfd @RunWithCraig @mayorbilldieruf

A photo @MikeLydon sent me from Bordeaux last week helped pull some threads together I’ve been thinking about lately regarding the future of retail and downtown Louisville in this short article: https://t.co/sJMK6Ys0WT
Came across slides I presented at a #pechakucha event in 2013. My talk focused on the need to create a dense, uniquely urban neighborhood downtown. I not only think it is still possible, but critical at this point. #cityrepair
