2023 Guest Speaker David Dixon

David Dixon FAIA - Stantec’s Urban Places Fellow

Residential Architecture Magazine named David to their Hall of Fame as “the person we call to ask about cities.” He has led planning in post-Katrina New Orleans, revitalized downtowns for cities large and small, and initiated a broad reappraisal of the role of density in building more livable, resilient, and equitable communities.

David’s impact has not gone unnoticed—he has won dozens of awards from the Congress for the New Urbanism, American Institute of Architects, American Planning Association, and International Downtown Association. A Fellow of the American Institute of Architects, David was honored with the Institute’s Thomas Jefferson Medal for “a lifetime of creating livable neighborhoods, vibrant civic spaces, and vital downtowns.”

David co-authored Urban Design for an Urban Century (Wiley, 2015) with Lance Brown FAIA and co-edited Suburban Remix: Creating the next generation of urban places (Island Press, 2018) with Jason Beske AICP.
