Description: Bob Eury, President, Central Houston

In 2000, Bob Eury wrote a prophetic essay called “Houston: A Vision for a Livable City” that talked about how to capitalize on Houston’s evolving activity centers and that still rings true today. At this event, he’ll revisit the vision and talk about possibilities for the future. “Ten years have flown by since we entered the new millennium, a time when we envisioned Houston in 2020 as an incrementally evolving network of livable city centers connected by transport corridors that delight the eye. While we were not named the host city for the 2012 Olympics, a key driver for this scenario, many elements are rapidly becoming a reality. I look forward to sharing my thoughts on progress and how a vision for a ‘Livable City’ might differ as we look forward to 2030,” says Eury.

(Bob Eury’s amazing vision is still available at Houston Tomorrow’s old Livable Houston Magazine website where there is a link on the left to “Bob Eury” under “Good: A Millennium Memento.”)
