Walk a little too fast and you might miss it, but nestled in the heart of Brooklyn off the Jefferson L train, a group of artists, activists, and golf lovers have turned a tiny slice of abandoned property into a nine-hole miniature golf course called THE PUTTING LOT. While PSFK reported on in it&#8217;s eminent opening in May , this golf course isn&#8217;t merely for recreational use- it&#8217;s become part of a master plan of it&#8217;s creators to promote sustainability, urban renewal, and eco-consciousness. Each of the nine putting holes was designed by a different team of artists and architects [...]]]></description>

With a peculiar sculpture piece based on a system of “Dendroids,” American artist Roxy Paine has created a 130-foot-long by 45-foot-wide stainless-steel sculpture at The Metropolitan Museum of Art&#8217;s Roof Garden. It is an interesting combination of concepts &#8211; Paine uses both mechanical means and the innate logic of natural forms to create his “Dendroid” tree-like sculptures. Like in nature, these are a series of vascular networks, tree roots, mushrooms, and fungal mycelia. His meticulous research and observation of a variety of tree species help him to understand the nuances of how a tree grows. Paine has said:

Award-winning London architectural practice East have once again proven their expert skill, here creating a new public area for Bermondsey Square in Southwark, South London. The aim of the square is to rekindle a sense of community within the new expansion, linking the surrounding spaces, pedestrian and cycle routes to the day-to-day activities of the area. With the square incorporating an arena for an outdoor cinema, seating, general play and a market, the space not only will help to bring people to Bermondsey, but is also in keeping with the deep heritage of the area [The Bermondsey Antiques Market has [...]]]></description>

Dating back to 1909, The Plan of Chicago is considered one of the fundamental documents in the history of urban planning, presenting a thoughtful design for a city that incorporated many of the very principles &#8211; livability, sustainability and functionality &#8211; that we strive for as we rethink our relationship to our metropolitan centers. In honor of its centennial, The Art Institute of Chicago has created an online exhibition titled Without Bounds or Limits that showcases the insights behind this radical vision through a comprehensive collection of archival images and documents that are especially relevant today.
The introduction to the exhibition explains:

		<description><![CDATA[When we were in New Orleans recently, Robbie Vitrano took us on a tour of New Orleans. At one junction as he waited, he explained that the land under the raised freeway we were about to go under used to be a park where the citizens of the city would spend their weekends. It was a reminder that while Eisenhower&#8217;s Highways Acts created an economic spurt in the US, it also led to the destruction of neighborhoods in cities across America. 
Writing in the New York Times, Nicolai Ouroussoff argues that we are at a pivotal time where we could [...]]]></description>

Streetsfilms point out a useful crosswalk modification they discovered along Seattle&#8217;s waterfront. The pedestrian walkway is different than most due to lines of blinking lights that border the crosswalk.  They act as a signal for drivers to be aware and stop for people walking through.
Another useful design tweak is that the crosswalk signal lights are foot activated by stepping on a pad embedded with sensors rather than pressing a button. It&#8217;s a simple change from a typical crosswalk, but one that makes crossing a road safer, and a more seamless experience for walkers.
