Your Call 061008 Commons Series - Public Spaces

What makes a great public space? And how can we create more of them? On the next Your Call, we'll continue with our series on the commons by taking a look at the evolution of public spaces, which allow social interaction between diverse groups of people. But gentrification, policing, and revitalized urban places are changing them. How have the public spaces around you transformed over time? And what do they mean to you? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar.

Guests:
Gray Brechin, project scholar and writer for the New Deal Legacy Project, which is documenting the physical legacy of the New Deal in California under the aegis of the California Historical Society.

Mona Caron, San Francisco based muralist
