Personal observation remains as important as ever to understand and improve cities today. While big data, digital mapping, and simulated cityscapes are valuable tools for understanding urban space, using them without on-the-ground, human impressions risks creating places that do not reflect authentic local context. Join SSF and Island Press in a webinar featuring Charles Wolfe, practicing Seattle land use/environmental attorney and Affiliate Associate Professor in the College of Built Environments at the University of Washington and renowned urbanism writer. 

 

The webinar will be moderated by Tom Mayes, Vice President and Senior Counsel at National Trust for Historic Preservation. Chuck will be joined on the panel by Lynn Richards, President and CEO of The Congress for the New Urbanism (CNU).
