Can a city built for cars change lanes? #thePPL @ #DNC2012
Charlotte grew up with cars, but its future is threatened unless the city and the region can grow in a manner that makes transit, bicycling and walking more effective, said members of the “Toward a Sustainable Future” panel.
Speaking were Charlotte City Council member David Howard (@DavidHowardCLT), UNC Charlotte urban design professor David Walters, architect/planner Terry Shook of Shook Kelley Design, Ellison Clary of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina, all of Charlotte, and Rob Perks of the Natural Resources Defense Council of Washington. Moderator (and panel organizer) was Shannon Binns of Sustain Charlotte.
