About this episode
Thanks to the work-from-home boom, more than a quarter of Portland's downtown offices are empty . And housing advocates and urban designers are wondering why we’re not turning them into livable spaces. Today on City Cast Portland, we’re talking with Sergio Palleroni , a professor of architecture at Portland State University and co-founder of PSU's Homelessness Research & Action Collaborative . He’s going to walk us through the cultural mind shift needed to make these plans possible, which could include sharing a bathroom with your neighbors (nope).
