Jane’s Walks, which commemorate seminal urban sociologist, Jane Jacobs, invite people to explore and share the places they care about as well as things that may make them uncomfortable, places they feel are unsafe, and places with room for improvement.<\/p>\n

Jane\u2019s walks are not your typical tour, and participants are expected to do more than hang back while the experts talk. Led by citizens or community groups, the tours offer a more intimate, sometimes critical perspective of the urban landscape. The goal is to enrich the experience by opening a dialogue among all the participants.<\/p>\n

This year, I noted that a few of the walks in Montreal invite citizens to evaluate alleyways, parks, and creative ways to reappropriate public space:<\/p>\n

Come, walk, jump, chat…and discover with new eyes the Mile End!”<\/em><\/p>\n
