SARASOTA – If this city had a collective book club, this month’s pick would be “Walkable Cities.”
More than a decade after Sarasota embarked on its Downtown Master Plan 2020 — meant to make the city’s core more connected and pedestrian-friendly — Jeff Speck, who helped work behind-the-scenes on the plan, is revisiting the city.
Speck, the author of “Walkable Cities,” spoke at several public events in Sarasota over the past couple days during a book-tour-meets-city-analysis visit.
