The Hyde Park Book Club hosted this event on Monday, January 16th, 2023, 7:30pm
Author Blair Kamin, a past Pulitzer Prize winner for Criticism, and acclaimed photographer Lee Bey discussed their new book – Who is the City For? Architecture, Equity and the Public Realm in Chicago. Together, they paint a revealing portrait of Chicago that reaches beyond its glamorous downtown and dramatic buildings by renowned architects like Jeanne Gang to its culturally diverse neighborhoods, including modest structures associated with storied figures from the city’s Black history, such as Emmett Till.
