Steve Wiser presents "What will Louisville be in 25 years?" at The Filson

What will Louisville be in 25 years?
Louisville 2035 by Steve Wiser
Thursday, March 27, 2008 – 5:45 p.m.
The Filson Historical Society

Where we’ve been, where we are, where we’re headed? Find out in this fascinating look into metro Louisville’s past, present and future. What will be the hot new residential and business districts? How will transportation connections improve? Prepare now for the next exciting, dynamic 25 years in Louisville!

Join The Filson and Steve Wiser for a lecture on what Louisville might be in 25 years, new business locations, neighborhoods and transportation systems on Thursday, March 27 at 5:45 p.m.

This lecture is a result of two of Wiser’s popular presentations: “Unbuilt Louisville” and “Lost Landmarks of Louisville.” Unbuilt Louisville” features developments that were proposed but never constructed. “Lost Landmarks” contains buildings that were built but no longer exist due to demolition. Wiser merges both of these themes into a vision of how Louisville might change by 2035. Wiser combines local history, past proposals, current planning and his own conjecture to offer an exciting future of how Louisville can become an even better place in which to live and work.

Cost: free and open to the public at The Filson Historical Society, 1310, South Third Street, Louisville, KY 40208.
