It's Neighborhood Week!

 

Headliner events for Neighborhood Week

Gentle readers, this week is Neighborhood Week. This is a week of events focused on advocacy around housing, transportation, and vision for Ann Arbor's future. It is being hosted by the Neighborhood Institute, Neighbors for More Neighbors A2, and the University of Michigan Urbanism Club. 

While events have been occurring all week, the headline events kick off tonight with Neighborhood Fundamentals: Housing, Transportation, and the Comprehensive Land Use Plan. This event is from 7-9 PM at Blau Hall, Room B1580. It will cover:

Why is it so hard to rent or buy in Ann Arbor? What are our barriers to walking, biking, or taking transit? How can we envision a better future? Designed for newcomers to housing, planning, and transportation safety activism, these expert-led conversations will cover the essentials of how we got here — and where we're going. Dinner at 7pm, while talks begin at 7:15pm.

Sounds great, but I want to know what dinner will be. There are tons of other great events this week including Parking Day, the Green Fair, and Bikeapalooza. You don't want to miss it.
