PPS launches Great Cornfields Initiative
Seeking to shed its image as a big city organization, PPS is planning an ambitious campaign for the heartland. The goal is to work in smaller cities and towns, improving urban cores and traditional main streets. But we don't want to overlook the power of Placemaking even in places where there are no people.
"Just because there is no one around except for planting and harvesting season, doesn't mean cornfields can't be lively places to be enjoyed by crows, raccoons, passing hobos, and teenage couples looking for some privacy," announced PPS's Phil Myrick. He added that the group hopes to branch out next spring to soybean fields, winter wheat, cotton and alfalfa.
Following the termination of our 20-year lease in Greenwich Village, PPS has relocated to the Corporate Square Commons in Parsippany, NJ. "We all got tired of walking to work and the subway is always so crowded," explained PPS President Fred Kent.
PPS's Cynthia Nikitin, a longtime New Jersey resident, offered this angle, "Driving to the post office, to lunch, to the drugstore, and spending 90 minutes per day stuck in traffic really gives you a renewed sense of why auto-dominated development and planning leaves people with no options. It really keeps you focused on your goals. Plus I can smoke in my car and nobody hassles me."
