Sidewalk Ballet (free!)

In honor of the late Jane Jacobs (NYC + Toronto urban activist), and in the spirit of the “sidewalk ballet” she wrote about in her book The Death and Life of Great American Cities, Seattle will join other cities across North America with a “Jane’s Walk” in Capitol Hill-Pike/Pine this Saturday, May 2nd at 2pm at the head of the fountain.  This is geared toward noticing the little things that make a neighborhood special…it’s NOT an architectural tour!  Hopefully it spurs others to do a tour in their neighborhood next year.

A good tour with a fine group of people. Thanks to guide Heidi Oien.

There’s other micro-neighborhoods on the Hill that could be usefully toured.
