A discussion with Washington Post writer and author Joel

Garreau, San Francisco Chronicle urban design writer John King, and Bay

Area developer Rick Holliday. Moderated by UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism Terner Teaching Fellow Bradley Inman

US cities are bubbling up, taking new shapes and making new sounds. Some

downtowns are becoming tourist destinations, sparkling like never before.

Others are as dead as Babylon. Some places that until recently were bedroom

communities are now job-packed, high-property-value visions of an ethnically

integrated, high-technology future. Others are a darkly punk hallucination

featuring gangs, gridlock and drugs. How does this new weave of urban

events fit together?

Faculty, professionals, students, and community members are invited to

attend.
