PARK(ing) Day

PARK(ing) Day returned Friday, Sept. 18 to Chattanooga, allowing local organizations and individuals to turn downtown parking spaces into miniature parks.

The mission of PARK(ing) Day is to call attention to the need for more urban open space, to generate debate around how public space is created and allocated, and to improve the quality of the urban human habitat … at least until the meter runs out!
