As many of you know, and hopefully some were able to attend, the Congress for the New Urbanism held CNU 19 over the past four days in Madison. I've seen a lot of interesting reports from the conference on Facebook (CNU is my "friend"!).
If you couldn't go–or even if you did–there is a great resource in the CNU 19 Liveblog. It recaps a lot of the interesting events and has some good links. Some of the highlights include:
-
Former Mayor (and current CNU Prez/CEO) John Norquist's view of Milwaukee
-
Incremental Urbanism
-
Ed Glaeser's plenary on his new book, Triumph of the City
-
Pedestrians and Cyclists
-
Reports on the various tours
-
Urban Stormwater discussion
-
Conservatives and the CNU
-
Tactical Urbanism
-
Link to the livestream video of the closing plenary with Andres Duany and Charles Waldheim
Good stuff there, and more at the CNU main website.
