Hartford: The Gameboard in Perspective and Speculation

November 20, 2014 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Speculation about the future of Hartford can be better grounded by comparing the city’s form and place with those of other cities, both now and in the past.  The talk will point out some of the often-overlooked forces and factors which made, and still shape, the city and its region.  Patrick Pinnell, architect and town planner, has worked with the Hartford Parking Authority, Connecticut Landmarks, and Burr-McManus Trust and draws on that experience to forecast trends in Hartford’s development. Thank you to program sponsors the Department of Fine Arts and the Center for Urban and Global Studies, Trinity College. For more information, call (860) 236-5621 x289 or email Jenny Steadman.
