Upstream: Mark Lakeman Podcast on Grassroots Urban Placemaking

Upstream · Mark Lakeman on Grassroots Urban Placemaking (In Conversation)
What if you got your neighbors together and occupied the public spaces on your block, transforming them into whatever you would all want it to be? What would you include? ...A solar-paneled tea station? A little free library? A mural? This is the type of urban placemaking that the The City Repair Project in Portland, Oregon inspires and facilitates.
In this Upstream Conversation, we spoke with Mark Lakeman an urban place-maker, permaculture designer, and community facilitator who co-founded The City Repair Project. In the last decade, he has directed, facilitated, or inspired designs for more than three hundred new community-generated public places in Portland, Oregon alone.
We spoke with him while he was visiting Santa Cruz about the capitalist history of the Urban Grid and how to reclaim our streets, revive community, and belong once more to place.
