Ecological Infrastructure

Ecological Infrastructure (39 minutes – with some interruptions)

With Simon Bertrang, Joel Pomerantz, and Jane Martin

Broadcast on 10-14-15

This discussion looks at the landscape of water in San Francisco and how we think about the overlap of ecological systems with urban infrastructure. 

Our speakers included Simon Bertrang, a planner for the Department of Public Works and a project manager for the Better Market Street program; Joel Pomerantz, the creator of Seep City, a map of San Francisco’s urban waterways; and Jane Martin, the founder and principal of Shift Design Studio and Plant*SF, an organization that promotes permeable landscaping for urban beautification and sustainable urban infrastructural practice.

The discussion was moderated by Alison Sant, co-founder and partner in the Studio for Urban Projects and broadcast live.
