Guests talk about one person, one place, and one thing that are important to them. The result? Surprising stories from great talkers. We’re delighted to welcome Person Place Thing back to Van Alen Institute — our past guests have included David Adjaye, Majora Carter, Justin Davidson, Jan Gehl, Alicia Glen, and Michael Kimmelman.This April, our featured guest is Sreoshy Banerjea, Executive Director of NYC’s Public Design Commission.
