The Finest City

The Finest City

by

Every city has a story, and this one is about San Diego. You might know it as paradise of ocean and sunshine, but as the most biodiverse region in the country and one half of the second largest bi-national metropolis in North America, it is also a battleground. We’re talking with the creatives, environmentalists, and social justice warriors who’ve been on the frontline fighting for progressive planning in this uniquely special city. We will also be exploring the history of land use activism in San Diego starting with the founding of Citizens Coordinate for Century 3 sixty years ago. If you love history, cities, and design, you won’t want to miss The Finest City.
