Former Minneapolis, MN Mayor R.T. Rybak says the Institute allowed him to look at the “aspirational goals” of his city:
“Whenever I meet a new mayor I say, there are a bunch of things you can do, but boy, the one thing you should really do is to go to the Mayors’ Institute on City Design. Mayors have a lot of detailed work to do but at the end of the day, you want to be able to say, I can look back on having left a mark on making my community a better place, and there are very few things you can do that have more impact than really building a great community that’s based on great design.”
