We are in the midst of a worldwide golden age of park creation, and featured in this episode are powerful examples. This recent surge of park development offers us much to celebrate. Parks are being designed as proactive, dynamic green spaces.
Our guests, Victoria Newhouse and Alex Pisha, are the authors of Parks of the 21st century: Reinventing Landscapes, Reclaimed Territories.
They discuss how neglected places have become glorious public parkland. Parks are becoming reinvented and reclaimed from former railroad beds, highway caps, former airports, former industrial plants, former quarries, former strongholds.
Victoria and Alex discuss parks they especially love in China, the Netherlands and other countries, and the future of parks, including ways they will help combat climate change.
We end, as usual, with our guests' special travel memories.
