The "Day of Play" was inspired by this Better Block video which features the town of Ottumwa, Iowa, where residents rallied together to share a vision of what the town's dilapidated Main Street could become. For one weekend, pop-up shops, outdoor seating, events and playgrounds revitalised the space and inspired the community to come together and seek better.
