Back in September of 2014, long before there was snow on the ground (well, now rain), I and two other Twin Cities urbanistas, were given the opportunity to participate in the largest Park(ing) Day celebration in the Twin Cities. The second annual local event organized by a local placemaking firm the Musicant Group and business association Experience Southwest celebrated reclaiming and transforming parking spots along city’s business corridors into temporary public parks. The event is part of a much larger world – wide celebration and movement across the world that envision a more greener and community based corridors where concrete and cars are replaced with temporary grass, games and fun filled activities for everyone.
