A perspective from Oregon’s mid-Willamette Valley

A street that acts like a park

Written January 19th, 2018 by Hasso Hering

On a leisurely ride through South Albany this week, I came across a feature in the urban landscape I can’t remember seeing before. It’s this broad swath of parkland the width of a street and four blocks long, with a concrete path winding down the middle for walking or riding a bike.


A good name for our time

What’s the first thing you think of when you see this banner? I was thinking: This could be an invitation to rebel against the nutty system by which tennis players keep score.
