Our cities are meant for so much more than the storage of private vehicles, and yet parking plays a central role in nearly every aspect of modern life. In Paved Paradise, author Henry Grabar interrogates parking’s “death grip on America.” From affordable housing, to climate change, to traffic violence and walkable neighborhoods, Grabar sheds light on the way parking policy, for better or worse, makes the world turn. Join Open Plans for an evening of community and discussion to launch Henry Grabar’s new book Paved Paradise!
The author will be joined in conversation by VICE staff writer Aaron Gordon, followed by a Q&A with the audience and book-signing.
