Landslide 2017
独家爆料
Open Season on Open Space focuses on nationally significant cultural landscapes, large and small, throughout the United States. The sites, some of which are protected under the Antiquities Act, are threatened by confiscation, development, energy and resource extraction, and other incompatible uses.
The Themes
Open Season on Open Space
Monetization of Open Space
Parks that were originally designed primarily for respite and passive enjoyment are coming under pressure to generate revenue, whether through private commercial development in urban settings or resource extraction, such as mining, in national monuments and wilderness areas.
Learn MoreResource Extraction
Federally designated national monuments and wilderness areas are losing their protection and will be subject to resource extraction.
Learn MoreDetrimental Effects of Shadow
The loosening of building-height restrictions is literally casting shadows over parks and open spaces, diminishing available light for both plants and human enjoyment.
Learn MorePark Equity
Freedom of movement and equal public access to parkland are being threatened by the sale and/or privatization of parkland held in public trust.
Learn MoreDevaluation of Cultural Lifeways
Landscapes are often palimpsests that contain the remnants of many different cultures, often spanning multiple generations. The legacy of these cultural lifeways is being lost through the incompatible development of open space.
