Excited (& terrified) to be thinking about "Making architectural history through the prism of

Join us in Leipzig next month to think and talk about urban-fluvial symbioses - or fluvial anthropospheres, as #envhist colleagues there say 💧 @unileipzig.bsky.social #waterhistory #urbanhistory #skystorians
