Take Back the Riverfront
Submitted by VernAnastasio on Tue, 11/13/2007 - 12:10pm.Below is my piece in today's Inky. I really hope those of us who attend the Praxis event tomorrow night ALSO go back to their communities and spread the word, share information and begin to rally around the idea of taking the riverfront back from the people who have hurt it for generations. The plan will be available online by tomorrow night. We should use the net to inform and empower on this critical matter.
Of course, anyone who owns a home, is building a future, raises children, or dreams of doing any one of these things some day anywhere near the riverfront has a stake in this. But I don't like to balkanize this city. We ALL have a stake in what happens on the waterfront.
Let's take it back. Let's organize. Let's turn it up!

Taking Back The Riverfront
It's time for the public to rally against the special interests.
