Everyone is dealing with the <br />loss of people-sized public spaces and places. The trick is, of course, to have usable AND appropriate public <br />design. Seems that the communities that are experiencng some sucess are the ones that simply insist that new <br />building designs meet the standards of local materials, local historical reference, flexability and variety. Certainly <br />not Elk River's program to this point, but we can redeem ourselves with the old downtown and in future <br />development. <br />Julie Kastendick <br /> <br />3/11/2002 <br /> <br /> <br />
