We're improving the SPUR event registration process.
Later this summer, we will launch a new ticketing system and we'll be asking you to register for each event you're planning to attend. This will help us keep you informed of any changes and better tailor our schedules and offerings.

 

Building on the knowledge gained in Urban Design 101, this session focuses on the problems that urban designers are facing in contemporary practice. In part two of a two-part primer on urban design, come explore the questions that practitioners struggle with on a daily basis. What does good design look like in 2019? How can new buildings engage with the street in the best way possible? Do municipal codes handcuff creativity? And why do we struggle to make great urban places today?
