Building on the success of the A Gateway for Redevelopment event, led by the City of Salisbury’s planners, we invite you to participate in the Salisbury is a Friendly Placemaking Learning Lab—a dynamic, collaborative event dedicated to transforming the South Main Street area into a vibrant, welcoming destination for both residents and visitors.

During this hands-on workshop, participants will first take a walk through the 12-block area to assess its walkability and discuss the potential for future improvements. This will be followed by an interactive mapping activity, where you’ll have the opportunity to visualize and share your ideas for the future of South Main Street.

Through your contributions, we will work together to uncover the area’s assets, challenges, and opportunities for revitalization. By the end of the session, we aim to create a shared vision for South Main Street—a place that is inviting, accessible, and rich with community spirit.
