The Urban Man (on KCRW.com)

Heard him yesterday and he mentioned the following
event for people who are trying to find areas in LA
for parks. So get out there, network and find some
Venice land for a park. Hey how about knocking down
Lincoln Place and creating a mini-Golden Gate Park?
Right across from the public Golf Course. Great idea,
boss.

The October 26 event is called Public Space LA!, yes,
with an exclamation point. You can learn about it at
http://publicspacela.com .
For KCRW, I'm Marc Porter Zasada.
