Ivan Harbour talks about the wider structure of urban design and strategic place making which can be cohesively developed as a new urban quarter, as it has been for Barangaroo in Sydney. Here, the primary political and human aim is to reclaim the city's waterfront and is achieved through a new series of streets and spaces of varying character to which many architects can respond and contribute.
His talk was given during a joint lecture by Graham Stirk, Ivan Harbour & Richard Rogers on 31 January 2012 as part of the RIBA's Cities for Tomorrow lecture series.
