What do communities on the social, economic and environmental margins have in common? For one thing, they tend to be on the east sides of cities. In this short talk about a surprising insight, anthropologist and venture capitalist Stephen DeBerry explains how both environmental and man-made factors have led to disparity by design in cities from East Palo Alto, California to East Jerusalem and beyond -- and suggests some elegant solutions to fix it.

Stephen Grotz firmly believes that suburbia cannot be the future for urban planning and design. A lover of creating cities since he first played SimCity, Stephen works as a practice architect in Charlotte, North Carolina. Stephen is a recent graduate from the UNC Charlotte School of Architecture and has researched the social and financial obstacles that prevent upward mobility through real estate investment. Stephen shares why urban settings are vital and fences do not make good neighbors. Stephen is a recent graduate from the UNC Charlotte School of Architecture and currently practice architecture with a high-end residential contractor in Charlotte. Stephen has spent the last 10 years of his career living and designing homes in the suburbs, but his academic studies and personal experiences from the pandemic have displayed how suburbia cannot be the solution to social exchange and financial investment. While pursuing his Master of Architecture degree at UNC Charlotte, Stephen researched the social and financial obstacles that prevent upward mobility through real estate investment that will be outlined in a report made public this fall. As an uptown Charlotte citizen, Stephen believes that the only sustainable, resilient, and humane way to live is in an urban setting– because fences do not make good neighbors, they make good strangers. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
