Nominate a Great Place in Pennsylvania
 
APA PA is looking for
Great Public Spaces and Great Streets


The Pennsylvania Chapter of the American Planning Association (APA PA) will be recognizing "Great Public Spaces" and "Great Streets" in 2017. Do you know of a public space or street that truly stands out in what it offers residents and visitors? Do you think it merits designation as a Great Place in Pennsylvania? If so, NOMINATE IT!

Nominations will be accepted through April 18, 2017. For more information, including guidelines, category criteria, and the nomination form, please visit the APA PA website: http://planningpa.org/about/great-places-in-pennsylvania-2/ . All Great Street and Great Greenway/Trail nominations must be submitted online at http://planningpa.org/events-training/great-places-in-pennsylvania/great-places-submission-form/ .

What Makes a Great Place?
Great Places offer better choices for where and how people live, work, and play. They are enjoyable, safe, sustainable, and desirable. They build a sense of community by being places where people want to be, to not only visit, but to live, work and/or play every day. Great Places also give their communities an economic boost by helping to attract and retain residents and businesses.

Many criteria, including functionality, accessibility, connectivity, community involvement, economic opportunities, forward thinking planning, and others, define Pennsylvania's Great Public Spaces and Great Streets. APA PA will recognize successfully designated Great Public Spaces and Great Streets through an array of activities, such as:
 
 News and social media releases statewide and locally about the designations
 
 Recognition on the APA PA website
 
 Coordinated attendance of APA PA representatives at local designation ceremonies in
 communities choosing t hold such events.
 
 Presentation of a Great Places Certificate and Window Clings
 
 Recognition at the APA PA Annual Conference.
