In conjunction with the release of his first book, Cityscapes: San Francisco and its Buildings, San Francisco Chronicle urban design critic John King will talk about “10 ways to look at a city” — everything from cultural battlefields to architectural collage, art exhibitions and measuring rods.

Books will be available for purchase from William Stout Annex at the event, 10% discount for SPUR members.
