In the Trenches -- Advocating for Smart Growth

In the Trenches -- Advocating for Smart Growth
Wednesday, October 24, 7:00pm
Tenley-Friendship Library

David Alpert, founder and editor-in-chief of Greater Greater Washington will talk about his blog. Ellen McCarthy, former head of the DC Office of Planning, will talk about her perspective on advocacy as a former government official. Jeff Davis, a neighbor turned activist, will talk about organizing members of the “silent majority” in the fight to redevelop the outdated Wisconsin Avenue Giant.

We expect a lively and informative discussion from those who have been "in the trenches" in support of a more walkable, bikeable, vibrant, and environmentally-responsible city.
