How Healthy is Your Downtown?
Downtown
healthcheck
After all the media spin of development news, physical infrastructure, transport
and cultural badges; here are some alternative indices of a 'healthy
downtown' to consider.
| · | Can you buy fresh, handcrafted bread -any time of day? |
| · | How many Foreign Language media titles are there in streetside news vendors? |
| · | On average, how much is a large cappuccino? |
| · | How many films are showing after 9pm? |
| · | Is streetfood safe, interesting, healthy? |
| · | Would you know what ticket to buy for unlimited daily public transport around town? |
| · | Do you see people reading the local morning media - or national tabloids? |
| · | How many independent retailers are there in the high street? |
| · | Can you name three peices of downtown public art? |
| · | Is 'the business district' open on a Sunday? |
How
well would our downtown score on these??
