A moratorium on new development in Newport, Rhode Island
Read MoreThe Place Making Institute (PMI) serves to strengthen the capacity of planners and community leaders in historic/scenic cities and towns threatened by developer-influenced zoning boards. In addition research will be sponsored through a fellows program that houses two to four planners in residence annually, taking advantage of the newly completed library which contains over 5000 publications. One of the key aspects of the PMI is managing the integrity of the community in its public space, architecture, civic institutions and design standards. The institute encourages the special character of places and focuses on enhancing the skills and techniques needed to sustain and apply them nationwide.
