Human City

Today our guest is Shin-pei Tsay a Commissioner in the Public Design Commission of the City of New York, former Executive Director of The Gehl Institute, Deputy Executive Director TransitCenter, and held executive positions at Transportation Alternatives and Project for Public Spaces. Shin-pei's work culminates in the intersection of public space and public policy. Something we talk about in detail and are surprisingly tied together in very important ways. Shin-pei is a huge proponent on peoples ability to change their environment and we talk a lot about how people can get involved, but also how it's okay to not be fully engaged in every detail of your space. Shin-pei is a powerfull force in the communities of New York City, and we can all learn from what she has to say! Links: Make Public (WeMakePublic.com) Might not work (yet!)
