The Housing Trap- Free Public Event

See all News

Are you ready to rethink what you know about the American housing system? Join us on Wednesday, September 18th to dive into the groundbreaking insights of “Escaping the Housing Trap: The Strong Towns Response to the Housing Crisis” by Charles Marohn and Daniel Herriges. Author Charles Marohn will discuss key findings from his compelling book, which challenges the status quo and exposes the conflicting way in which we view housing as both a financial asset and a fundamental need.

During this insightful event we’ll explore:

  • A Fresh Perspective: Break free from outdated thinking and embrace a new approach to housing.
  • Innovative, Local Strategies: Learn actionable steps to revitalize communities and create sustainable housing solutions.
  • Engaging Discussion: Share your thoughts and questions on building resilient, adaptable neighborhoods.

Don’t miss this opportunity to join for this important discussion!

This free event is open to the public and will be held on Wednesday, September 18th at 6:00pm at Amesbury High School. This event is being hosted by the City of Amesbury and was made possible with partnerships from Merrimack Valley Planning Commission, the City of Newburyport, and the Town of West Newbury Affordable Housing Trust.
