Profile Information
- What is your interest in the Creative Arlington beta community?
- In helping people access this creative community without a vehicle. Its all about Live, work, play...no car required. Creative juices flow better when people see each other on the street, when they bump into each other at cafes, at the bus stop, or on the train. Arlington's compact urban villages are perfect for stirring the creative pot and making this a more interesting, fun and productive place.
- How do you or would like to use your imagination and original ideas to enrich the economy and culture in Arlington, and beyond?
- Through TDM (transportation demand management). Transportation and mobility are Arlington's competitive advantage. Where will the creatives flock to: Tysons or the R-B Corridor? Duh! The fact that we can walk, bike or take a bus or train everywhere is one of the things that makes this urban community click. It makes for a better quality of life and a better business climate. Check out the research that says so at www.commuterpage.com/research.
