Sacramento News & Review:  The mayor, who spoke with SN&R last week, says he “absolutely” is intrigued by the alley activation in Midtown—despite city staff’s rebuffs. Same goes for J Street’s revitalization. “J Street has the potential to be something that doesn’t focus on vehicles and be more about the pedestrian experience, with retail and shops up and down the street,” the mayor explains.

Johnson also emphasizes lessons learned from Midtown—in spite of its slow evolution and confusing growing pains. “The key to [Midtown’s] success has been largely how it has developed organically without a lot of bureaucratic interference,” he says. “And I think there’s a lot to be learned from that.”
