Physical Assets

One way to look at city services is through the lens of physical infrastructure: it is the job of the city to provide functional [hysical assets for the rest of us to go about our civic lives.

We focus on parks infrastructure, since that is a common meeting ground.

Of the collection of material here, the most extensive is for playgrounds. Playgrounds have undergone many transformations in the last several years, and we try to make sense of the reasons and effectiveness of these.
