Share In honor of Election Day in the United States, I wanted to post this reflection of the political climate of Greensboro, where I live and work and inspired to be a placeist most of all. It’s written by my friend Graham Sheridan, a 23 year old Greensboro native and a graduate of Grimsley High […]
Cities are experiencing a renaissance in the global conversation. However, one must not forget the sins of cities past and present. What can we do to make sure the city allows all to enjoy and prosper in its borders? People move to the suburbs for different reasons. Let’s make sure it’s not because you hate […]
Share Like this luggage, sometimes I linger in the sunset at the crossroads of whether or not it’s worth picking up the baggage and moving on. (Credit: Flickr user: C.M.

I was riding down the road and noticed a billboard advertising a shoe store. This shoe store used to be on the High Point Rd Corridor but now has moved across town to the Battleground Ave. corridor. Funny thing is, both shopping centers are unsustainable (in environmentalist terms) strip malls, that are at least 25 […]
ShareOn Sunday I read an article in the News and Observer that illustrates the true effect of the modern neighborhood school. In this article, schools in wealthy neighborhoods had established private foundations, some that were able to pay teachers outside of state funding. This is on top of the money raised by their Parent Teacher […]
