Next Wednesday will provide the occasion to participate in an Urban Land Institute walking tour of our notable downtown alleys. We're talking about Post, Nord and Maynard alleys and more. Also, the transverse alleys of RailSpur, and the renovated Harbor Steps ... not really an alley, but still worth the walk. Quoth ULI, “Mixed-use alleyways are inherently cool: They bring down the scale of a big, bustling downtown to something more intimate and charming, provide right-sized spaces for small businesses, promote unique and varied architecture, and foster a sense of community by encouraging pedestrian traffic.” The 1.3-mile march begins at 3 p.m. at Cannonball Arts, at 1930 Third Ave. (aka the vacant former Bed Bath & Beyond space at the Securities Building's north garage).The slog concludes with a happy hour at venue TBD.
