City Planner Book Club Meet Up (CM 1.5)
The Merchant 279 Grove Street , Jersey City, NJ, United StatesOur planning careers are pivoted on building communities, both physically and socially. But what about building literary communities? The premise of the CPBC is simple. Every three months, APA-NJ and APA-NYM will choose a different book for membership to read. Our current selection is Crabgrass Frontiers: The Suburbanization of the United States. On the third month of these quarterly cycles, the chapters will organize an in-person meet-up to discuss the featured book at length. Between the time of introduction and meeting-up, CPBC members are encouraged to participate in an online forum to share their ideas in real-time. Our September 2012 meet-up will be held in Jersey City's The Merchant Bar and Restaurant from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m.
