It outlines parklet fundamentals and key precedents, then presents program case studies across major cities including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Montréal, New York City, Vancouver, Philadelphia, Long Beach, and Oakland. The toolkit also includes policy recommendations, future parklet vision concepts, and supporting appendices such as agreements and interview questions for stakeholders.",{"@graph":63,"@context":119},[64,80,102],{"@type":65,"itemListElement":66},"BreadcrumbList",[67,71,74,77],{"item":68,"name":69,"@type":70,"position":9},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":72,"name":10,"@type":70,"position":73},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/",2,{"item":75,"name":46,"@type":70,"position":76},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/paper-templates/",3,{"item":78,"name":59,"@type":70,"position":79},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/reclaiming-the-right-of-way-a-toolkit-for-creating-and-implementing-parklets/282504/",4,{"url":78,"name":59,"@type":81,"image":82,"author":87,"headline":59,"publisher":90,"fileFormat":93,"inLanguage":57,"description":61,"dateModified":94,"datePublished":95,"encodingFormat":93,"isAccessibleForFree":96,"interactionStatistic":97},"DigitalDocument",{"url":83,"@type":84,"width":85,"height":86},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/reclaiming-the-right-of-way-a-toolkit-for-creating-and-implementing-parklets/282504.png","ImageObject",442,249,{"name":88,"@type":89},"Aurelia","Person",{"url":68,"name":91,"@type":92},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-07","2026-09-16",true,{"@type":98,"interactionType":99,"userInteractionCount":101},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":100},"ViewAction",6,{"@type":103,"mainEntity":104},"FAQPage",[105,111,115],{"name":106,"@type":107,"acceptedAnswer":108},"What is included in the toolkit for creating and implementing parklets?","Question",{"text":109,"@type":110},"The toolkit covers parklet basics, need and rationale, precedents, program case studies, design guidance (site selection through construction, safety, comfort, and maintenance), and visions for future parklets, along with appendices that support implementation.","Answer",{"name":112,"@type":107,"acceptedAnswer":113},"Which cities are covered in the program case studies?",{"text":114,"@type":110},"Program case studies include San Francisco, Montréal, New York City, Vancouver, Philadelphia, Long Beach, and Oakland, with broader parklet discussions also tied to Los Angeles.",{"name":116,"@type":107,"acceptedAnswer":117},"What kinds of design topics does the toolkit address?",{"text":118,"@type":110},"Design guidance addresses choosing and designing a site, land-use considerations, safety and comfort, landscaping, amenities, active recreation parklets, public-space marking, cost and support, and ongoing maintenance.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":78,"og:type":121,"og:title":59,"og:site_name":91,"og:description":61},"article",{"robots":123,"canonical":78},"index,follow",{"doc_id":125,"site_id":56},282504,1790292525,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":128},{"doc_id":125,"user_id":129,"nickname":88,"user_avatar":130,"doc_module":9,"category_id":45,"category_name":46,"doc_title":59,"doc_description":61,"doc_content":131,"file_id":132,"file_url":133,"file_type":134,"file_size":135,"view_count":101,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":9,"is_downloadable":9,"audit_status":9,"page_count":136,"language":137,"language_code":57,"site_id":56,"html_lang":57,"table_of_contents":138,"faqs":139,"seo_title":140,"seo_description":61,"update_tm":141,"read_time":142},1099514068365,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/avatar/10000253d8d9f28188e?_k=1776742907772140068","RECLAIMING THE  \nRIGHT OF WAY  \nA Toolkit for Creating and Implementing Parklets  \nLewis Center  \nReclaiming the Right-of-Way:  \na toolkit foR cReating and implementing paRklets  \nUCLA Complete Streets Initiative Luskin School of Public Affairs  \nSeptember 2012  \nACKNOWLEDGEMENTS  \nThis report was made possible by the generous support of The Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Foundation.  \nAUTHORS  \nAnastasia Loukaitou-Sideris, Associate Dean, Professor UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs;  \nUCLA Department of Urban Planning Madeline Brozen, Program Manager  \nComplete Streets Initiative  \nUCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs Colleen Callahan, Deputy Director  \nLuskin Center for Innovation  \nUCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs  \n…  \nIndia Brookover, Graduate Student  \nUCLA Department of Urban Planning Neal LaMontagne, Graduate Student  \nUCLA Department of Urban Planning Veena Snehansh, Graduate Student  \nUCLA Department of Urban Planning  \nABOUT THE COMPLETE STREETS INITIATIVE  \nThe Complete Streets Initiative is a joint effort of the Lewis Center for Regional Policy Studies, the Luskin Center for Innovation, and the Institute of Transportation Studies in the UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs.
