At the recent Thriving Cities conference, I sat down with William Sherman, Professor of Architecture, at the University of Virginia. As an architect and an expert on the built environment, Professor Sherman examines how misguided building design over the past century has inhibited urban thriving. At the same time, Professor Sherman offers key insights into how architects can facilitate a more just and socially aware built environment.
In part 2 of the interview, Professor Sherman will explain the particular role that architecture plays within the larger urban ecosystem.
