DON'T FORGET - Tactical Urbanism Book Release Party TONIGHT @ Makeshift Brooklyn

Short-term, low-cost, and scalable interventions -- from pop-up parks to open streets initiatives -- have become a powerful tool of citizens, planners, and policy-makers seeking to drive lasting improvements in their cities. In Tactical Urbanism, Mike Lydon and Anthony Garcia provide an in-depth history of the movement and offer case studies to produce a toolkit for conceiving and carrying out projects. Tactical Urbanism promises to be the foundational guide for urban transformation.

 

CNU-NY is proud to sponsor this event with co-sponsors Sixpoint Brewery and Smart Sign and thanks to ioby for hosting.
 

Please join us and the New York community of tactical urbanists to celebrate Mike and Tony's great accomplishments. Come for the party, the reading, book signing, scrumptious local snacks, and raise a glass of Sixpoint to Mike Lydon.

 

Space is limited. Get your ticket today!
