AND SUSTAINABILITY DESIGN
Barry J. Long, Jr., AIA, LEED AP, is principal and president of Urban Design Associates (UDA), a Pittsburgh-based firm that has a national practice of helping communities recover from disaster.
UDA worked to rebuild Paradise,
Calif., where a 2018 fire destroyed more than 18,000 structures, including over
14,000 homes, and killed 85 people.
Long noted that more than six years
after the fire, Paradise is only about 25 percent built back.
Businesses have been slow to come
back, because there’s not enough population to support them.
