Come celebrate the life and ideas of Jane Jacobs. You are invited to Jane's Walk in Ohio City. Meet some community members interested in celebrating the liveability of our unique neighborhood. Join us in appreciating historic landmarks . Contribute your ideas about how to make Ohio City's streets more pedestrian, transit and bike friendly.
We will be walking around the neighborhood and talking about what we see.
Saturday May 1, 2010. 1 PM. Starting at Market Square Park on W. 25th and Lorain.
This does sound good. I live in the area, and will try to catch up for a part of the walk.
About 10 years ago, I was working in my yard on the day of the Ohio City Home Tour. None of the toured homes was on my street, and a small group walked down to my house, where the elder of the group explained that 70 years ago that day (it was his birthday), he was born in the upstairs of my house. It was really nice. His family came in and we all went upstairs where he talked about growing up in my house, and how great things were "back then".

I am so glad that our worlds touched.
