Going to the market

I don't usually post about what's going on at work, but this month's newsletter about public markets is one of the best ones we've churned out (and I had nothing to do with it). Markets, after all, are the "original human gathering place," and it is about time that they experienced a great revival. Don't miss the fun image gallery of markets past and present. I really like the 100 tips that were dispensed by David O'Neil, one of our public markets experts who was responsible for the revival of Reading Terminal Market in Philadelphia. These tips could apply to other contexts, for example, to city managers' jobs. Anyone trying to put together an equation that produces economic, social and physical benefits for their cities would stand to learn from this.
