Brand Avenue is a blog about places in the process of becoming.
It's a venue to explore ideas of place, space and identity--via architecture, planning, urban design, marketing, and urban development.
It's written by Chris Timmerman in Providence, Rhode Island. I'm an architect, facilities consultant, and freelance writer. I've been writing Brand Avenue since February 2005.
The views expressed here are solely my own, and not those of any current or past employers, with whom this site is not affiliated.
Brand Avenue was featured in the August 2008 issue of Architect Magazine, here.
Brand Avenue is on Twitter, Facebook, and Delicious, too.
Finally, here's a list of over 100 places across North America and elsewhere that inspired the early development of Brand Avenue.
