Big City Planning Directors’ Institute 2023

The Big City Planning Directors’ Institute is an annual collaboration of the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy, Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design, and the American Planning Association, now in its 24th year. By convening planning directors from the nation’s largest cities, we examine emerging public policy questions and shared challenges that influence the planning and design of large cities and their metropolitan regions. In 2022, the Institute was attended by 32 directors, representing cities from New York to San Diego.
