In this episode, we sit down with architect and urbanist Stephanie Behring, co-founder of ReStudio Architecture, to explore what makes Oak Cliff—and cities like it—truly work. From the balance of historic preservation and new development to the challenges of affordability and density, Stephanie shares her deep knowledge of how the built environment shapes our daily lives. We discuss the power of 15-minute cities, the role of adaptive reuse in maintaining affordability, and why neighborhood involvement is key to keeping communities thriving. Stephanie also offers a look at her work in East Oak Cliff, the evolving architectural landscape of Dallas, and how thoughtful design can create places that are both beautiful and functional.Tune in for a conversation about urbanism, walkability, and the future of Oak Cliff, with insights that go far beyond architecture.
