Community Room

Lakewood CO 80226
You are invited to bring a lunch and join Lakewood planning staff each Wednesday in October for a one-hour film that examines urban planning challenges and opportunities. Please join us after each film for a 30 minute staff-led discussion on each week’s topic!
Taken for a Ride
This film reveals the tragic and little-known story of an auto and oil industry campaign, led by General Motors, to buy and dismantle streetcar lines. With investigative journalism, vintage archival footage and candid interviews, “Taken for a Ride” presents a revealing history of our cities in the 20th century that is also a mediation on corporate power, city form, citizen protest, and the social and environmental implications of transportation.
