The Orange Section of APA California and Preserve Orange County present this virtual
symposium with Ken Bernstein, Principal City Planner and Manager, City of Los Angeles Office of Historic Preservation and Urban Design Studio. Ken has recently published a book entitled, Preserving Los Angeles: How Historic Places Can Transform America’s Cities.
