From Nike's project, we can see that even though they have successfully sold their products to people. Nevertheless, when shoes got beat up, people usually just throw it away. Fortunately, Nike has collected shoes for reuse and build couple public facility. This is type of work that working with community and society, which we talked about during the lecture.

I think this is a great idea. I would love to know more about it. There is not much other information about it on the internet besides what is in the video. Does anyone know if Nike donates these courts or fields? That would be a great way to give back to the community.

I really like this a lot. This is good for Nike public relations wise and it is smart economically as well. Nike being a progressive company is a positive for everyone involved.

San Francisco's city covered in public art allows visitors to gain a better understanding of the culture and history of the city itself; since the establishment of the Art Enrichment Ordinance the city has funded artists to portray their work throughout the various buildings of the city.

I grew up in San Francisco and I have always appreciated the art around the city. The most memorable are the different heart sculptures that have been placed around downtown.

I have been there many times and I always want to live in SF. Everything in San Francisco is beautiful and artistic but At&t park is the most beautiful building in there to me
