Pop-up refers to spontaneous or temporary nature of the parklet. A Parklet is a mini-park created along
a street, usually within the parking zone, to enhance the pedestrian experience along the sidewalk.
While a parklet is mostly for peoples enjoyment by creating a greener streetscape, it can represent a
thoughtful reallocation of public space and a deliberate action to shift away from our auto-dominated
streets. Many streets are designed for cars at the expense of pedestrian safety, comfort and enjoyment.
Today, many communities are re-thinking their streets and making them friendly to all modes of travel,
especially pedestrians and bicycles. These complete streets are recognition that we can change the way
a street looks, functions, and feels. A complete street also recognizes that children, seniors and the
disabled can be safely accommodated in the street environment, while creating a healthy and walkable
environment for everyone.
If you think a parklet is a better use of land than a parking space, tell us why
by tweeting using the hashtag #haddonfieldparklet and lets get the
conversation going! You can also visit the Sustainable Haddonfield website and
