The American Planning Association has released its annual list of great places in the USA--10 neighborhoods, 10 public places, 10 streets.

And one of them is very local to me--the Hollywood Florida Broadwalk

For Boston, there's a in-city park and Mount Auburn Cemetery,  and a third one, Decatur (Ga) is the place where I went to college (Emory).

Interesting list. Covington KY surprised me. I didn't realize there was anything worth seeing. I've driven through it, past it, hundreds of times but never stopped to smell the roses.

For public space my nomination would be Easton Town Center in Columbus Ohio.

the phone rings and somebody says,
"hey, they made a movie about
Mahler, you ought to go see it.
he was as f*cked-up as you are."
