“The city also loves to use harsh chemicals to spray away the the maze that keeps getting painted on the walkway at Grange park.

Every two weeks.

Erect the bus benches ourselves.

Shrink the streets ourselves.

There’s a long history of neighbours taking matters into their own hands.

We need to bring Tactical Urbanism back. …”

Still, happy to see someone walking the Labyrinth in midst of the pandemic . . . View this post on Instagram #Life’s a #labyrinth. […]
