Warren H. Manning: America’s First Environmental Planner

Birmingham Botanical Gardens 2612 Lane Park Road., Birmingham, AL, United States

Robin Karson’s talk will make a persuasive case for Warren Manning’s historical and national importance. She will provide insights into Manning’s background and work and will speak to the broad strokes of both his 1919 City Plan of Birmingham and the design of Mountain Brook in the 1920s, with lots of interesting visuals.
