BOOK LAUNCH: 
with Urban Grind, 131 Latrobe Tce 
Sunday, 27 May 2012, from 10am 
Buy the book + have a coffee + meet PARKers + celebrate where Brisbane Park(ing) Day started. 

PARK(ing) Day was started in 2005 by Rebar to raise awareness about the lack of green spaces in San Francisco’s downtown. It transformed an on-street car park into a ‘people park’ by temporarily providing turf, seating and shade. It is based on the idea that paying for a parking meter is like ‘renting’ a public space.
