TURBO is part of the Civic Design Center's Reclaiming Public Space (RPS) work. The goal of RPS is to look at Nashville's underutilized or poorly designed spaces and turn them into pedestrian friendly, enjoyable, and safe places. TURBO is used by the Civic Design Center as an action arm to implement concepts based on research from projects and publications.
One major program that is used to reclaim public space is PARK(ing) Day. The average PARK(ing) Day parklet costs the Civic Design Center $300 per installation based on staff organizational time and material. 2020 will mark the 9th year of PARK(ing) Day in Nashville. PARK(ing) Day is an important part of RPS because it takes TURBO concepts to the mainstream. PARK(ing) Day in Nashville reaches thousands of people every year. Locals and tourists alike experience the many parklet installations around town in neighborhoods and downtown as well as on social media (PARK(ing) Day is the Design Center's and TURBO's widest reaching social media Day).
