How do we design and build places that are as livable as European cities and as dynamic as Asian cities? Is it fair to judge more recent development by the standard set by older development? Does the architecture profession as a whole adequately consider the needs and desires of the people who will be living within the urban ecosystems they design?
In the New Urban Architect Podcast episode #9, architect James A. Moore discusses this challenge, along with a variety of corollary issues.
Moore is a Senior Vice President at HDR, a prolific architecture & engineering firm with nearly 200 offices worldwide. His work is diverse, with particular emphasis on urban design, urban redevelopment, and community sustainability.
