Don't Build, Rebuild

In this California Sun podcast I talk with architectural critic Aaron Betsky. He challenges conventional thinking about our built environment in his new book “Don’t Build, Rebuild,” in which he makes the case for transforming existing structures rather than constructing new ones. From San Francisco’s empty offices to Los Angeles’s historic core, Betsky explores how this approach can not only address housing shortages and climate change but also preserve the soul and stories embedded in our buildings.
