Block Street & Building | Vol. 3 | 2017

21st century metropolitan areas must change to move forward. We need to harness the energy that comes from regional cooperation and boldly restructure practices still built for old technologies. We need to embrace smarter ways of living and working. We have already seen successes by isolated and voluntary examples. These are good. But to be competitive, we will be pushed to do more, do it more broadly and do it more boldly. This fall Metroplan will begin an update of Imagine Central Arkansas focusing on the steps that must be taken today to reach the vision tomorrow. You are invited to join us on this adventure.

“Vision without action is a daydream. Action without vision is a nightmare.” — Japanese Proverb
