Please join us in person for a member-led workshop to discuss how Berkeley public sidewalks and streetscapes relate to new denser and pedestrian oriented buildings.  

The workshop will begin with a short slideshow on design standards (generic and Berkeley’s), best practices elsewhere, and built design in Berkeley.  The goal is to combine our previous discussions on downtown development, new development on College, north Shattuck and Solano Avenues, and the campus expansion and fusing into the urban fabric, with thoughts and perspectives on “sweating the small stuff” – sidewalk widths, bike lanes, street furniture, wayfinding and all the other items that create a comfortable and welcoming environment that supports commerce and social interaction.

Location: AIA East Bay Conference Room, Brower Center, 2150 Allston Way #310, Berkeley, CA 94709.

Many thanks to AIA East Bay for hosting this event!
