For more than three decades, Jan Gehl has studied the way people use cities, publishing books such as Life Between Buildings and Public Spaces, Public Life.
Jan Gehl, was in town for a two-part lecture in August 2009. He walked, biked and boated with city employees and others through Saskatoon to offer advice and inspiration to an evolving city trying to balance development with pedestrian-friendly policies.
"What I've seen so far, this city has the potential to be one of the greatest cities of Canada," said Gehl during Monday's walking tour. "Except for Vancouver, no Canadian city has addressed the humanization of urban space."
