Human City

Human City

by

The mother who made a community garden, the professor who dedicated his life to parking, the architect who studied the nuances of a public bench – these are the people who make our places, well, human. Through the words of leaders, thinkers, designers and simply doers, we investigate what makes our bursting cities human and how this may liberate our growing urban population. Hosted By Stig Terrebonne

Victor Dover FAICP, LEED AP CNU-A – Founding Principal of Dover Kohl and Partners Town Planning.

Mr. Dover is insane. His work was cited by Architecture magazine as being among ‘‘the country’s best urban designers and architects.’’

His places are cited in a lot (if not most) of the planning textbooks , he has done over 200 Charrettes, served as a national chair for CNU, Coauthored STREET DESIGN: The Secret to Great Cities and Towns (with previous guest John Massengale) … and continues to design beautiful cities today 🙂

In this episode we talk about how Victor got into the field of town planning, his video series (City Planning Stuff Everyone Should Know, the importance of trees and parks, how to fix your downtown’s, retail today, and some ideas on the future of housing. I could have listened to him speak all day.

Tune in to hear for yourself!
