Making OKC Walkable. City planner and former NEA Design Director Jeff Speck has
been commissioned by the City of Oklahoma City to advise it on improving
pedestrian activity and street life downtown. In his presentation, Mr. Speck
will explain why OKC is ranked dead last nationally in walkability by
Prevention magazine and what easy but dramatic changes are needed to remedy the
problem. <br>
<br>
Mr. Speck's presentation begins at 6 p.m. and is free to the public. <br>

Washington, D.C. He regularly provides his expertise to civic leaders to make
their communities more livable. Through design work, lectures, writing, and
federal service, he has contributed to an international movement that seeks to
re-center the practice of urban design around humanist principles. In 2003,
Speck was appointed director of deisng at the National Endowment for the Arts,
a post he held through May of 2007. In this position, he directed the Endowment's
two leadership initiatives in design: the Mayors' Institute on City Design and
its rural counterpart, Your Town: Changing its Future. Prior to his federal
service, Mr. Speck spent 10 years as director of town planning at Duany
Plater-Zyberk & Company (DPZ), where he helped the firm solidify its status
as the leading practitioner of the New Urbanism, a global effort that seeks
alternatives to suburban sprawl and urban disinvestment. <o:p></o:p></p>
