“Awesome Ideas” About the Future of Cities

What awesome ideas – old and new – will help practitioners take cities where they need to go next? This is an imagining session. Topics might include: place-making, mobility oriented development, retrofitting buildings for resilience and energy efficiency, water, digital technology, and community engagement for deeper resilience. The session will open by a short talk on the creative tension between sustainability and resilience. Then present the most provocative, future city-making ideas from the previous 5 sessions. Then there will be 6 Pecha Kucha presentations of 20 slides, each for 20 seconds. Facilitated conversation will follow the presentations.
