CNU 24 Daily Wrap-Up: Thursday, June 9
CNU 24 continues today in Detroit, Michigan, as over 1400 New Urbanist leaders, longtimers, and newcomers continue to explore the city and engage with its amazing residents. Yesterday's program presented Detroit Day, focusing on inspiring local speakers, along with the internationally-focused Windsor Day in nearby Ontario and the annual presenting of the CNU Charter Awards.
Every day this week here at Public Square: A CNU Journal, we're collecting the highlights of our annual Congress, as seen through the eyes of our members and followers. Here's the #CNU24 Daily Wrap-up for Thursday, June 9.
Even for native Detroiters, always something old, new and interesting to learn about the city #CNU24 @NewUrbanism pic.twitter.com/OaV4StV38s
