At the first KSQ Speaker Series event in September, HKS Executive Director Bo Wright introduced the series and the theme, “How We Build Matters,” by delving into issues of financial sustainability and the wealth generated by walkable communities built to a human scale. Development decisions that stand the test of time, he says, are made by an educated citizenry that appreciates the wisdom inherent in making small bets and building trust and relationships before buildings. The goal of the KSQ Speaker Series is to inform, enrich, and spark these community conversations.
At the next event on November 11th, award-winning designer Marques King will build on the ideas Wright presented by sharing from his experiences as an architect and small-scale developer making great places for people in his hometown of Detroit.
