Eye on the Street: April 29, 2011

Today's Eye on the Street comes from myself, Matt Berggren. I took this photo during my trip to Portland, Oregon. This is the bike parking outside Powell's Book Store. It shows Portland's committment to the bicycle. This year the city has had so many requests to turn parking spots into bike parking that they have not been able to keep up with demand!

"Eye on the Street" is an ongoing series of user-generated photos and commentary submitted by dedicated New Urbanists like yourself. Ever been walking down a busy, well-developed street and thought to yourself "I am walking through a great pic of urban design!" and wished you could share it? Ever been attempting to cross an six-lane road and thought to yourself "I just wanna cross! I wish I could take a picture and share this insanity with everyone"? Well, "Eye on the Street" is your way to do exactly that. Snap-as-you-go and submit your pics to: communications@cnu.org.
