Conversations Re: Tacoma - Sustainable Transportation: The Future Is in the Past
The creation of new, attractive urban spaces relies on good, non-automotive mobility options. Ironically, American cities used to rely on an infrastructure of inter-city and inter-urban rail, street cars, biking and walking. The guide to what will work best in the future has already proved utile and well-designed in the past. In this forum three experts in sustainable transportation will analyze historic conceptualizations of mobility with a view towards how that vision from the past can become a prescription for a more livable urbanity.
Speakers: Al Runte, Author of Allies of the Earth: Railroads and the Soul of Preservation Andrew Austin, Transportation Choices Coalition Diane Wiatr, Mobility Coordinator/Urban Planner, City of Tacoma Moderator: David Nicandri, Washington State History Museum, Director
