Public transportation is an asset in neighborhoods for several reasons, e.g., it provides a way for people who do not have vehicles to get around the city, leads to the University, and therefore eases parking financial burdens for students and teachers along with not having to pay parking fees in the city for residents, provides jobs, saves gas money, and importantly for Utah: reduces poor air quality and fights other negative aspects of climate change.

Art spaces and alliances are very convenient for artists such as myself. These spaces allow artists to network, which brings more opportunities, i.e., jobs, collaborations, exposure, resources, skill growth, and more. Being an artist, it is nice to have access to exhibition spaces so that we can showcase art and engage with other artists' work. It connects people to their passion for creation and leads to fulfillment. Furthermore, the spaces help artists feel like they have a place within the community and that their art is valued. It also provides community members opportunities to engage with the community and going to art galleries is something they may find enjoyable to do.

Overall, I am impressed with the diversity and assets that Fairpark includes in the neighborhood. While the last project revealed deficits, this project allowed me to see that there are also positives in the area. I believe this is an important life lesson: while there may be improvements needed, there are still positives to be grateful for. This neighborhood is a good example of inclusive diversity, something that is important in the U.S. as there are people who have different interests and needs; many come from various backgrounds. Exploring the neighborhood reminded me of the various worldviews, experiences, and needs that are present around me. I believe that many other communities can learn how to enhance their spaces by coming to Fairpark and seeing the assets that provide inclusivity.
