From http://udstudio.org/:
The twelfth forum of the Sustainable City Series held by the Urban Design Studio will focus on urban parks and greenways.
Urban parks and greenways play a vital role in the overall sustainability of a city and region. Parks protect wildlife habitats, provide economic development through place-based economies, cleanse the air, reduce flooding, provide environmental education opportunities, facilitate social gatherings, and offer the possibility for recreation, health, and fitness activities.
Louisville already has a world-class park and greenway system, but that is just the beginning. With the Louisville Loop, Waterfront Park, 21st Century Parks and several other notable initiatives, Louisville is creating one of the most extensive urban park systems in the country. Join us to learn more about the future of our parks and how they are promoting a sustainable city.
This event, as previous forums, is free to the public. Space is limited so please fill out this form to reserve your seat at this free event. You must enter seperate RSVPs (as guests) for every person you wish to reserve a seat for, thank you.
