Bring me a sidewalk.

There is no end of good that a sidewalk brings. It brings safety, it brings emotional connection, it bridges communities.

And yet, in so many towns, flung across this huge country, sidewalks are hard to come by. Their benefits are without measure. Yet, town after town, builds without them. The quick fix, the template development has little use for the sidewalk. Unless the municipal arena is innovative, and the appointed boards educated, the sidewalk walks right out of the picture.

No words needed.

And now Rizzoli.

Historic treasures vanish in upstate New York at a steady clip, now NYC faces the loss of Rizzoli.
