"Government stimulus in the form of roads aren't going to cut it. There is a huge opportunity for #placemaking in the recovery stage as it will focus on multiple outcomes (Economic, Health & wellbeing, Social, & Environmental) at a local level.

Our social and cultural capital will be the foundation stone for new economic capital once we return to physical places and gain a new sense of local (as globalism will take longer to re-emerge) How do we capture the learnings from this to have a place led economic recovery

The Octagon Pilot in Dunedin is a fantastic example of demonstrating what change looks like, how it feels, and importantly what it means.

Asking people about change raises fears, demonstrating change creates new habits and understanding.

I was recently asked to present my formal road stopping procedures. I said it was more semi-formal.

#PublicSpace has become a cross-cutting cause in #GlobalDev, & #placemaking a means to bring us together for faster, broader, & more systemic, impact.

After a great #WUF10 launch of #PlacemakingX, placemaking leaders continued a big presence throughout the #WorldUrbanForum.

If you had to sum up the most important and enduring argument in Jane Jacobs’s Death and Life of Great American Cities, this is it. We still don’t fully understand how cities work, and big interventions to bring order to their chaos often destroys the real underlying order.

@jh_arch @BMHayward @secondzeit Classic! Yes indeed

@NewtonFaulkner How about a Christchurch gig in NZ? Your show in the Town Hall before the earthquakes was great fun and it has now been rebuilt and ready for another!

Best way to keep warm at #christchurchartsfest. No lambs arrived yet @nmcinroy but will keep lookout

@ebkent @jen_keesmaat @PPS_Placemaking Indeed, place and #placemaking breaks traditional silos. Rethinking government structures around place is crucial to building trust with communities and unleashing their potential to make a positive impact in cities and towns

@SimonKingham @motnz Look out for @michaelwmehaffy over there Simon. Met him in China last year at #placemakingweek and he is doing some great stuff
