Remember when we shared that story about Wonus and his duplexes crapping up the Milk District? This meeting is about projects like that which are known as infill. The title of the next Rethinking the City public talk and meetup is "The Great Infill Debate." It takes place Tuesday, October 25th, 6:30pm at the Juice Bike Share headquarters, 515 West Central Blvd. Free admission.
Join Elisabeth Dang and Terrence Miller, planners for the City of Orlando, for a discussion of how duplexes became the focal point for redevelopment in Orlando's downtown neighborhoods. They will cover the history of duplexes in Orlando, the economics behind the redevelopment trend, and the ability of urban design tools to blend the new with the old.
