Strong Talk: Designing for All Ages
What features in our public spaces present challenges for seniors, but go unnoticed by the engineers and planners who create them? What does it mean to design a city that works for people of all ages?
In this week's episode of Strong Talk, we'll livestream a conversation between Strong Towns member and contributor Sara Joy Proppe, whose recent article on the topic of seniors and auto-oriented infrastructure sparked a meaningful discussion, and Melissa Stanton, editor and advisor for AARP’s Livable Communities Initiative.
This episode, hosted by Rachel Quednau, will take place at 12pm CT today (Friday, May 5).
Tune in on this page at 12pm to watch, or visit our YouTube page afterward to see the recording of this conversation, as well as all our past Strong Talk episodes.
