First Lectures Announced

Open Space Seattle:2100, in partnership with the Department of Planning and Development's Urban Sustainability Speaker Series is pleased to announce the first two speakers in our lecture series. On November 14th, Marc Childs will be speaking downtown. The author of Squares, Mr. Childs is a renowned expert on urban open spaces. The second speaker will be Mike Houck. As the founding director of the Urban Greenspaces Institute and as the Urban Naturalist for the Audobon Society of Portland, Mr. Houck's life's work is focused on how natural systems might harmoniously coexist with human development.

We hope that you can join us at these events, which will take place in downtown Seattle at a venue TBD. These exciting lecturers will provide tremendous insight as we move toward an integrated open space network for the City of Seattle.
