What features in our public spaces present challenges for seniors, but go unnoticed by the engineers and planners who create them? What does it mean to design a city that works for people of all ages?

In this week's episode of Strong Talk, we livestreamed a conversation between Strong Towns member and contributor Sara Joy Proppe, whose recent article on the topic of seniors and auto-oriented infrastructure sparked a meaningful discussion, and Melissa Stanton, editor and advisor for AARP’s Livable Communities Initiative, hosted by Strong Towns Communications Director, Rachel Quednau.
