Terra Nova: The New World After Oil, Cars and Suburbs
Eric Sanderson with Alexandros Washburn
Sorry!
No performances are currently available.
With his groundbreaking book, Mannahatta, Eric Sanderson showed us what a natural paradise Manhattan was, before it became a city.
In Terra Nova, he takes the same pioneering cross-disciplinary approach to show how America could look in the future—after oil supplies are depleted and we’re forced to re-examine our relationship with the natural world. Join him for a glimpse of a new form of the American Dream. Sanderson is joined by Alexandros Washburn, the Chief Urban Designer of the City of New York, Department of City Planning.
