Introducing CNU's "Eye on the Street"

Attention all New Urbanist photogs - amateur and professional alike:

Today marks the official launch of CNU's "Eye on the Street" blog.

"Eye on the Street" is an ongoing series of user-generated photos and commentary submitted by dedicated New Urbanists like yourself.

Ever been walking down a busy, well-developed street and thought to yourself "I am walking through a great pic of urban design!" and wished you could share it?

Ever been attempting to cross an six-lane road and thought to yourself "I just wanna cross! I wish I could take a picture and share this insanity with everyone"? Well, "Eye on the Street" is your way to do exactly that.

Snap-as-you-go and submit your pics to: communications@cnu.org

Today's entry comes from longtime CNU member and photographer Art Cueto, who caught a glimpse of Pasadena at its best:

"This is what a street should look like when it is operating at full capacity.  It was ironic how no one complained about traffic until they got into their cars."  -Art Cueto, photo: Colorado Boulevard, Pasadena, CA Jaunuary 1, 2011.
