Join us on Tuesday,  December 10 from 5:30-7pm to discuss Planning Chicago, a new book by Jon  Devries and H. Bradford Hunt that has been receiving a lot of attention in  the press. Purchase your copy now and come prepared to discuss both the  history and future of planning in Chicago. Copies of the book are available  through APA directly, Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, or the Chicago  Architecture Foundation store. Location TBD; event fee will be minimal. 1 CM  pending. Once the details of location and price are confirmed, we will ask  for attendees to register in advance. Stay tuned!
