Ghost town to home town

Many of you will have attended one of my Ghost Town, Clone Town, Home Town workshops. One of the main concerns in communities is what do you do with empty shop fronts.

Look what Liverpool in the UK are doing. “Opera for Chinatown ” is held in Duke Street which is the oldest Chinese community in Europe. The city has taken old buildings and created murals in the windows of the original residents and what they would have been doing.

What a great idea that brings a street to life again.
