Going for a walk is a simple yet powerful way to get to know your neighborhood and better understand its assets and challenges. But what’s even better than going for a walk on your own? Going for a walk with your neighbors.
This tour stop will feature Jacob Unterreiner, leader of the Strong Towns Local Conversation group Charlotte Urbanists, joined by Strong Towns Community Builder John Pattison. He’ll walk you through his group’s process for doing monthly neighborhood walks (also called “Jane’s Walks” after Jane Jacobs), how they organize these outings, and how they use the event to reflect on important issues facing their city and its built environment.
