Peterborough's Jane's Walk 2013 In Celebration Of Jane Jacobs
/
Jane's Walk is a yearly celebration in memory of urban activist and writer Jane Jacobs, who promoted getting out and learning more about your community.
“No one can find what will work for our cities by looking at … suburban garden cities, manipulating scale models, or inventing dream cities. You’ve got to get out and walk.”
—Jane Jacobs, Downtown is for People, 1957
Chris Gooderham is organizing the Peterborough walks, in conjunction with the Peterborough Field Naturalists.
