Park(ing) Day, an event that repurposes street parking spaces in creative and fun ways, is Friday, September 15.
“Park(ing) day is a global, public, participatory project where people across the world temporarily repurpose curbside parking spaces and convert them into public parks and social spaces to advocate for safer, greener, and more equitable streets for people.”
The Park(ing) Day website (https://www.myparkingday.org) map shows two locations in Sacramento, but doesn’t have any additional information. The two are 1998 J Street and 2500 16th Street. 2500 16th may be the old Tower Records location, currently an empty lot awaiting development. 1998 J is the intersection of J and 20th. There have been Park(ing) Day events on this block of 20th in the past.
American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) has coordinated Park(ing) Days in the past (2022), but there isn’t any information for 2023.
If you have more info, please provide a comment.
I did not see any evidence of Park(ing) Day activity at either location. Maybe next year.
