6: The Power of Public Parks – Michael Shiosaki

How do we define a successful park? What do people remember? How ​do the landscape and building​s work together to ​define a space that creates belonging? What role does art play in ​the process of creating local meaning?​ How do we adjust to climate change?

Mark Johnson speaks with Michael Shiosaki, the Director of Parks & Community Services at the City of Bellevue, exploring his wide and deep experience with placemaking in this region.
