Creating Space for Sociability

Every spring umbrellas open on sidewalks like daffodils, reflecting a growing desire by people to revitalize community, find time from their busy day to socialize, and be part of an active street life.

The emerging "Cafe Society" centered around music, entertainment, dance and dining requires alliances among key stakeholders with both an interest in nurturing places for residents and visitors to meet and socialize, as well as providing the structure and tools to sustain a safe and peaceful neighborhood.

The Cafe Society Network is a forum to unite representatives from hospitality, safety, development and community perspectives seeking to share strategies and tactics to better plan, manage and police their nighttime economy.
