	Metroactive Features \| Rebuilding Santa Cruz
		Before that, Pacific Avenue was just a boring little Main Street, and a flagging one at that, until Chuck and Esther Abbott embarked on a mission called "Project Foresight" to convince business owners to transform the avenue into a Pacific Garden Mall.
		With nearly 100 species of trees and plenty of benches and planters for sitting, the converted PGM was lush and welcoming, its line swaying gently east and west as it ambled north from Cathcart to Water, accented along the way with architectural landmarks like the Cooper House and the Del Mar Theatre.
		For a while, the new mall flourished, and the counterculture with it, which I'll sum up unjustly with a snapshot of the Cooper House in the afternoon: people eating and drinking outside, lawyers and hippies in close proximity, Warmth playing the soundtrack--over and over and over--to people dancing in the streets.

		To visit Pacific Garden Mall in the 1970s or '80s was to enter a kind of permanent Mardi Gras, peopled by jugglers, surfers, retirees, tourists, and students from UC Santa Cruz.
		The single most difficult decision may have been to abandon the old one-lane Pacific Garden Mall: it is now simply Pacific Avenue.
		And because the old Pacific Garden Mall had earned a reputation as a haven for panhandlers, the city has even hired a social worker specifically to work with downtown's transient population.

		I didn't make it a point to point out to Jameson and the others, however, that I was in fact "different.") In listening to their conversations, in conjunction with the hugs I had received earlier, I came to the conclusion that these were "good" people: kind, loving, and helpful.
