Description	Albuquerque's architecture is a tale of two cities, according to Chris Wilson, J.B. Jackson Professor at the UNM School of Architecture and Planning. The city's regional, historical and cultural identity is manifested in UNM, Old Town, Corrales, and the North Valley--all areas where we see Southwest regional style. Albuqeurque's alter ego exists in its contrary impulse towar high tech. "Kirtland , Sandia and Intel reflect the city's inclination as a regional medical, educational, science, military and semiconductor center" says Wilson. In this lecture, Professor Wilson explains the roots and realities of Albuquerque's distinctive identities. He talks about the various buildings and periods that created the skyline, neighborhoods and streetscapes of the city.
