What Indy (& Other Cities) Can Learn From Portland

Posted by Shayna Pollock on June 07, 2011

Jim Walker, a CEOs for Cities Indianapolis cluster member, expounds on the virtues of Portland, which he explored during the Spring 2011 Spring National Meeting, in an article in the Indianapolis Star. Through the lens of Portland's regional growth boundary, vibrancy and livability, central city transportation, and walking and cycling culture, the article applies lessons learned from Portland to Indianapolis. By adapting Portland's many successes in building quality of place, Walker discusses ways to improve Indianapolis, which already has a thriving art scene. Walker's article is just one example of the many ways that CEOs for Cities partners are working to make their cities "a place anyone would love to call home."
