Making Sense of Place



Making Sense of Place is a documentary film and educational outreach project launched by the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy. The first film, Phoenix: The Urban Desert examined explosive, dispersed growth in the booming Southwest metropolis and the practical and environmental issues that have accompanied. The second film, Cleveland: Confronting Decline in an American City, traces urban decay, and efforts at revitalization, in what was once America's 5th largest city.

Recently, Portland: Quest for the Livable City was released exploring innovation and conflict about growth and land use regulation in the self-proclaimed "City that Works" Portland, Oregon.
