at Boom Island Park between the playground and the bridge to Nicollet Island. There is shockingly little seating in this park. Perhaps unrelated there are a lot of Rainville signs around here.

I wasn't aware that Minnesotans are uniquely unable to change whereas people from other parts of the country are not.

We really needed this cooler weather.

localhuman @locallhuman.bsky.social · 15d

seating standards/design guides put the optimal/comfortable height for seating between 14 and 18 inches. I do like the cube shape though!

localhuman @locallhuman.bsky.social · 15d

Thank you for coming to help build benches!

localhuman @locallhuman.bsky.social · 16d

Thank you to everyone who turned out to help assemble 20 benches in 3 hours last night! It was great to make things together, imagine a better city, and get to know each other better!

If you're interested in stewarding a bench in your neighborhood, send a message and we'll try to make it happen!

We need local governments to work as a team and build together, not an administration that blames and passes the buck. We are all in this together Minneapolis!

If you’re in Minneapolis, cancel your plans tonight and come make a bench at @ehbforbet.bsky.social’s campaign event to add more free public seating in town.

All the wood is pre-cut courtesy of @locallhuman.bsky.social, so we’re just assembling.

RSVP for address: actionnetwork.org/events/bench...
