4:00 - 5:00 PM Reading and Author Discussion

Urbanism Without Effort is a new book by Chuck Wolfe; the book explores "what happens naturally when people congregate in cities -- innate,
unprompted
interactions of urban dwellers with each other and their surrounding
urban and physical environment." Chuck, whose writing regularly appears
in The Atlantic and Huffington Post, explores underlying rationales for
urban policy, planning
and regulation from a historical perspective, with an eye for the everyday uses of urban space.
Chuck's book offers readers inspiration, historical context, and a better understanding of how a sustainable, inviting urban environment is created.
