Comprehensive Plan / April 21 / Charette
The Raleigh Planning Department, knee-deep into writing a new comprehensive plan, is open to our biggest, baddest, baldest ideas for fashioning a great 21st century city. So they say. Dust ‘em off, shine ‘em up, and bring them to Tir Na Nog on Monday, April 21. More below, from Kris Larsen —
July of 2008 marks the 220th anniversary of the first ‘planning’ meeting held for Raleigh. That meeting, held at Sir Isaac Hunter’s Tavern, established Raleigh as the new state capital of North Carolina. In honor of this occasion, the Department of City Planning will be hosting a spirited, non-traditional planning charrette to discuss the Big Ideas you have for downtown and the City of Raleigh. This email, and the attached PDF, is a call for our community’s dreamers, thinkers, and critics, imagineers, and designers to come together to share your ideas, no matter how crazy or far-fetched, for what our community can be.
You want a river downtown? T ell us.
An arena surrounded by walkable retail? Tell us.
A zip line between the Two Hannover Tower and Wachovia Capital Center? Tell us.
You get the point.
Please feel free to post the attached PDF on your respective websites, as the success of the event will be influenced by the number of dreamers we have in attendance.
The details:
Where? Tir na nOg Irish Pub (218 S. Blount St., Downtown Raleigh)
When? April 21st, 2008 from 6:00 – 9:00 PM
What else do I need to do? RSVP to Kristopher.larson@ci.raleigh.nc.us
