The past, present, and future state of cities with Kurt Kohlstedt from 99% Invisible

Cities@Tufts Lectures

Cities contain an infinite number of stories, case studies, and tangents that we could never do justice on a podcast series, let alone a single episode.

But today, we’ll begin to scratch the surface with a conversation between Kurt Kohlstedt, co-author of The 99% Invisible City and a producer of the 99% Invisible podcast and Lily Linke, the creator of the Foot Notes podcast and a recent Tufts urban planning and design graduate.

You can find out more information about Kurt Kohlstedt and the 99% Invisible podcast (and their new book) by visiting 99percentinvisible.org. Lily Linke’s 5-part podcast series, Foot Notes, can be found at footnotespod.com.

In addition to this audio, you can watch the video and read the full transcript of their conversation on Shareable.net and while you’re there get caught up on past lectures.

Cities@Tufts Lectures explores the impact of urban planning on our communities and the opportunities to design for greater equity and justice with professor Julian Agyeman and host Tom Llewellyn.
