#286/Topeka Modern: Saving the Docking Building with Michael Grogan + Paul Post
Topeka Kansas is the home of the famous Supreme Court case Brown vs. Board of Education that ruled against segregation, it’s where Annette Bening and Katrina of Katrina and the Waves grew up. It’s where Wil Wheaton of Star Trek used to party with Penn Gillette. It’s where Dr. Phil started … a health club…. with his dad in 1971, well before being discovered by Oprah when the beef industry sued her. And it’s the home of Plains Modern, a small but intrepid group battling to save Kansas’s modernist heritage, specifically one particular state office building. Joining us today are architect and professor Michael Grogan of Plains Modern and attorney Paul Post.
