Equitable Social Infrastructure in Placemaking
Update: 2025-08-20
Description
There's an emerging trend in placemaking: equitable infrastructure. When large investments are made in streets, transportation systems, bridges, and tunnels, it can uplift, reinforce, and build community and culture. There can also be investments in a community's social infrastructure — which is reflected in the design for a new YMCA in downtown Boise, Idaho. In today's episode, we talk with Cushing Terrell's Amy Lindgren and Jason Butler, as well as Treasure Valley Family YMCA's Kathryn Hunter, about how this new investment acts as a main street and multi-need social center for the community.
