Excellent summary of this year's Ice Bucket challenge and some questions about the future impact of such fundraising tactics. Most interesting: Will the success of the ice bucket challenge create a culture of giving that is not strategic and not directed to where the greatest needs are?

I love this quote with "city" replaced by "museum": Yet the aspirations of a [museum] can also be measured in smaller scraps of land - the remnant spaces that often are blighted or ignored, but with imaginative design and care have the potential to be destinations.
