@DublinCommuters There is a real opportunity to make bus stops playful spaces. Would definitely help make waiting at a bus stop with smallies less stressful! Sufficient vertical and horizontal shelter and visual interest too please. Opportunities to sit. @PlayfulParadigm @APlayfulCity

@G_Ni_Chaiside talking about the 'power of doing' and the desire to see partnerships between people/groups and building owners in Sligo town to make more use of spaces @sligococo @riotsligo #RIOTSligo

A great quote from Danish architect Jan Gehl shared by @NathalieWeadick during @riotsligo: “First life, then spaces, then buildings – the other way around never works… Make it nice where you are, and put the density on top.” #placemaking #sligo #riotsligo

@BuaMarketing @NathalieWeadick @riotsligo You gotta love a good Gehl quote!

Inspired by the culture conversations with these folks today. Sligo Be Brave, Talk, DO, Learn, Repeat. ‘Practice’ is an ongoing joyous, & oft uncomfortable process. Enjoy! @riotsligo #weareculture #amuighfaoinaer #sligo #landscapearchitecture #streetsasplaces

As part of the #NCADBETA collaboration with @ncad_service @ixd_ncad, one of the teams focussed on how residents in a locality might get local buy-in and consensus to make changes to ‘their’ street. They neatly solved a few aspects for #NeighbourhoodBETA youtu.be/jY4_yMVdV-g

All in the name of ‘tidying up’ the weeds he said?! Yes it’s on private land, land that has not been used by anyone in many years, yet home to countless creatures, pulled asunder. It seems Biodiversity is a dirty word around here @sligocountycouncil @BioDataCentre

They’re here! At long last the main street in Sligo has her first ever street trees, raised into position as light closed on today’s beautiful autumn evening. Two stand, but one more to go. #acerplatanoidesgreenemerald #nomoretreesinboxes #oconnellstreet #sligocountycouncil

@kreuzberged How wonderful?! I noticed many of these beautiful trees on a recent rip to Berlin, love that it is sponsored by the people for the city #bravo

Good morning #Berlin and Beyond! Here's a piece of very positive news to start the day with: several new Stadtbäume, or City Trees, have been planted in Riemannstr. in #Kreuzberg. Sponsored by private people, in this case by Hannah & Kolja - whom we thank and say "Jut jemacht!"

On a recent trip to Berlin I noticed many of these new City Trees, I'm inspired to know they are in fact sponsored by private people. What a wonderful way for people to shape their own streets, becoming the gardeners of their own public space. CheckIt @sligococo @TreadSoftlyFest
