In this episode of The Landscape Nerd Podcast, Maci chats with Malena Grigoli and Jennifer Lumpkin about Project Sophia—a creative, community-driven effort rethinking what it means to take buildings apart. They dig into the difference between deconstruction and demolition, the power of art and cultural legacy, and how sustainability and reuse can shape a more connected, mindful city.
