21st Century Working Waterfront

Civilization was built by the sea. The 20th century waterfront was an accumulation of functions that were best placed on or near the coast. As populations grew, demands emerged with greater impactful consequences. In this episode of World Ocean Radio, host Peter Neill will ask, "What will a 21st century waterfront look like? What will benefit the future welfare and health of urban populations? How will we make it work for us as a necessary and fulfilling reality in the future?"
