Announcing PlacemakingUS's "Public Realm Roundtable!" A national and international gathering of #publicspace and #placemaking leaders in NYC June 13-16. 🗽
The Public Realm Roundtable is a national gathering of government and supporting organizations who build, maintain and enliven public space.
New York City’s Mayor Adams, business districts and the Alliance for Public Space Leadership have come together to forge a new position in government, the Director of the Public Realm. This revolutionary new role could become a best practice that the top cities across America should want to pursue.
A gathering of those responsible for the public realm including parks departments, property management bureaus, public works managers, and government-adjacent players like BIDs, “Friends of” organizations and conservancies will convene in New York City this June to have a series of thematic roundtable discussions to share good practices, innovations and discuss pain points in our collaborative and emergent work to create praise-worthy public realms.
Key Topics of Discussion
🤔 Catalyzing and Keeping Cross-Department Synergies to Complete Vast Transformation
🤔 Maintenance and Enlivening of Spaces with Partners through Permits, MOUs, and License Agreements
🤔 Equity and Anti-gentrification Tactics
🤔 The Next Frontier: Reforming Already-Existing Public Spaces for Better Use: 🤔 When Streets, Sidewalks, Parking Spaces, Buffers and Margins become new centers of Public Gathering
🤔 Making the Case: Connecting the Realm to its Outcomes like Health, Economy, Climate, Sociability and other positives outcomes to attract partners and ease permissions
