After changing a city by creating the renowned Atlanta Beltine, a 22-mile transit greenway that connects forty diverse neighborhoods to schools, shopping and public parks, what would you do next? For Ryan Gravel, the answer was to write a book that enables others to do similar work in their own cities. Join us for a talk about Where We Want to Live, a new book that argues that we can change both the physical form of the city and the decisions people make about living there.
