It’s hard to define what the City Repair Project is because it refuses to be put in a box. In fact, that may be one of its signature qualities: a nonlinear approach to – well, life in general.
Founder Mark Lakeman condensed centuries of civic planning theory into this accessible message: Do something (anything) to improve the common ground you share with your neighbors. As the shared process of developing a community place proceeds, whether that be to create a bench or a kiosk or public art, people develop deeper relationships and more energy to create together. This literally becomes common ground that transcends the differences among people, powerfully addresses the isolation of modern living and creates an environment where people feel like they can do anything they set their collective minds to.
