Winners of the Livable Streets Contest
Steve Price won the Livable Streets Contest for his vision of a “complete street” in Portsmouth, Virginia.
Last week, GOOD announced the winners of its Livable Streets Contest.
It was a simple assignment: “Take a photo of a street or intersection you know and hate, and then use Photoshop or any other image editing techniques at your disposal to make the changes you’d like to see implemented.”
The winning submission was from Steve Price of Portsmouth, Virginia.
Contest judges Aaron Naparstek from Streetsblog and designer Carly Clark said Price’s “holistic approach is just what what’s needed in a barren urban environment like this. He’s thinking about new infill development, light rail, bike lanes, and outdoor space for pedestrians and putting it all together to create an entirely new neighborhood. Portsmouth should go and make this happen right now!”

We at UrbanMilwaukee.com helped Juli Kaufman enter S. 2nd Street Milwaukee, WI in the contest and we came in second. What’s great is today the mainstream press started picking up the story so we might actually have a chance to get the street redone which she’s been working on for months now.
