Creative Sustainability and Business Improvement

Using creativity to reinvent the Bloomfield Avenue Corridor.

Out with the old, In with the relocated!

The vacant space left behind by Zaentz will be occupied by a current business operating in Montclair. After the editor of Montclair Vibe spoke with the business owner and offered several solid ideas about adding public seating and planters along the side of the building, they welcomed the ideas with open arms!

Before and after images of the progress will be posted periodically on this blog as a case study that small spaces can be transformed into important public space.

Although based on personal interest in improving the Bloomfield Avenue Corridor west of Park Street without any help from the township, this personal project correlates with "Placemaking: Making it Happen" which is a professional training workshop being offered by the Project for Public Spaces  in New York


Big ideas can fit in small spaces.
