Let's start with an idea

High Street Green...a social enterprise facilitating partnership between municipalities, local commerce, and digital entrepreneurs to develop innovative, street-level solutions for place-making and community asset mapping. We leverage technology to connect people with places.

But what does that mean? Place-making is about residency, work, community, sustainability, desirability, durability.

There is, of course, a large "literature." People talking to themselves is a form of discourse, and there is a place for formal discourse.  But get in the game!  Take a stake.  It takes time in life to choose your games and stakes and to place the bets, but it is better to take a stake than to do nothing and sometimes being part of the "literature" is doing nothing.

We should not congratulate ourselves for our feathery damsel fly landing on a topic.  Hit it.  Hit it hard.  Whip it.  Whip it good. We hereby commit ourselves to solutions.
