A Sustainable Future for the Bay Area

Listen to architect, urban designer and urban planner Peter Calthorpe for a frank discussion on the future of development and population growth in the Bay Area. As a founding member of the Congress for New Urbanism, Calthorpe has dedicated his life to sustainable building and urban planning to accommodate the expanding needs and realities of our growing population.

As citizens of a unique and cherished geographical treasure, those of us who live in the Bay Area are committed to maintaining the charm and character of our open spaces and the vitality of our cities. How can we guarantee homes, work, and a healthy environment for our children and grandchildren without compromising the values and priorities we place on the future of the Bay Area?
