The 26th Annual Congress for the New Urbanism will include a series of sessions open to the public. Registration is required as seating is limited.

CORE: Walkable City

While making more walkable places is a worthy goal in its own right, the concept of walkability may be most useful as a framework for understanding the design decisions, at every scale, that distinguish successful urban places. Join city planner and best-selling author Jeff Speck for a lively discussion of the techniques that new urbanists use to help communities thrive. A book signing will take place at the DeSoto Hotel following the presentation. Pick up your copies of Walkable City at the CNU 26 Bookstore, open Wednesday through Friday, and conveniently located in the Madison Ballroom of the DeSoto Hotel BEFORE attending the Core: Walkable City.
