Urban planner and Princeton resident Tony Nelessen leads a workshop visualizing what the town might look like in 2035 as affordable housing requirements are met. In-person and virtual.
This program will be recorded and the recording will be available on the library's YouTube channel in about one week's time.
The library partners with Princeton Future, a local nonprofit not affiliated with the municipality, to explore places susceptible to change as we look to the future of Princeton.
Nelessen, a volunteer board member of Princeton Future, will present findings from the organization’s previous meetings, where residents shared recommendations for specific locations in Princeton where change is possible.
