Retrofitting Suburbia - Lecture and Webinar



In this issue:

Public Lecture

Can vacant big boxes, dead malls, dying commercial strips, out of date edge cities and aging office parks and garden apartment complexes be turned into more sustainable places?

Ellen Dunham-Jones, award-winning architect and professor at the Georgia Institute of Technology, will present urban design strategies and policies for re-inhabiting, redeveloping, and regreening underperforming suburban-style properties based on the over eighty successful built examples documented in her 2009 book, Retrofitting Suburbia: Urban Design Solutions for Redesigning Suburbs.
