Episode Description

In this episode of Playopolis we hear a conversation between Quentin Stevens, Rachel Iampolski, Troy Innocent and Kiri Delly recorded at twosixty. about an experimental, playful parklet.

Parklets have rapidly become part of urban landscapes everywhere during the pandemic. While rapid changes to planning policy that enable more space for people in our cities are a positive development, most parklets are not public spaces in which everyone is welcome. Can parklets be reclaimed as a form of tactical urbanism? How do we make parklets playful again?
