There is a blog in Louisville called Broken Sidewalk that just ran a great story with maps about how much of a problem surface parking is in our city too. And Urban Guy, you've been so busy the last few weeks. As usual, I love the pics, and the idea of the intersection of Church and State.

I definitely want to know how you access the pictures you use and how you format them. Keep posting. I've linked my blog to your blog.

I love that blog. It's one of my favorites. I for one am crusading against the surface parking epidemic downtown (of course you already knew that) using awareness. My blog on Knoxville spaces focuses on historical buildings that have been lost to the wrecking ball in a misguided notion of progress. I want it to be a visual representation of John F.

I see only the occasional musical and I missed this one, so no write-up. I'm a blogger on a budget, so I have to pick and choose a bit.

I thought it was significant that such a large-scale and popular musical appeared at the Tennessee Theater, and that it garnered enough interest for almost a week-long run. In fact, I enjoyed seeing it more at the Tennessee than at the Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05515269639081768587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1899977486910720199.post-7347559619445795152012-01-13T14:29:39.788-05:002012-01-13T14:29:39.788-05:00Hey Greg,

I think what resonated with me in the Neely article was the idea that we need to move past how cool we are becoming, stop being measured by our diminished, recent past and start being what we are. I also thought the comment about the danger of becoming like an Epcot version of a city makes sense Knoxville Urban Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539393470673457465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1899977486910720199.post-71337609493062783662012-01-13T08:39:52.918-05:002012-01-13T08:39:52.918-05:00I like the "planning for greatness" arti...I like the "planning for greatness" article on Hillsville (although the comment that "there isn’t a whole lot of space left to work with" is obviously wrong -- there are plenty of surface parking lots downtown to build on yet). Thanks for the link to that site.<br /><br />I don't know about Neely's article. How does he know important things aren't being discussed Gregnoreply@blogger.com
