We just published a preview of 7 outstanding public places in #Detroit that will be featured at the 5th Int'l #PlacemakingWeek, 6/24–26. From a legendary food market to a beloved riverfront, these gems have stories worth hearing! www.pps.org/article/snea...
Excited for #PlacemakingWeek to be in Detroit, the city from which PPS launched the placemaking movement, back in 2013: www.pps.org/article/plac...
A fertile moment to reflect on & reinvigorate the movement. We will support from @placemakingx.bsky.social & @sociallifeproject.bsky.social.

📣 Early Registration for the 5th Int'l #PlacemakingWeek is now open! 🔗 www.placemakingweek.org
Co-hosted with the Downtown Detroit Partnership, this year's event will take place in Detroit, MI, from 6/24-26. Our last Placemaking Week sold out—registering early is strongly recommended!
This was actually said by a big developer at our first #PlacemakingWeek, in 2016, in Vancouver.
