About this episode

<p>Roman Mars is on a mission to describe the cities that shaped who he is and how he thinks about design. Next up, Santa Fe. </p><p>Santa Fe wasn’t always on the proverbial map — in fact, the Santa Fe railroad just passed it on by. A lot of care has been taken to keep Santa Fe cute and quaint over its history, with steps to preserve native architecture and historical design. The result is a mixture of structures old and new, but mostly made to look old, for better or worse.</p><p><a href="https://99percentinvisible.org/?p=41790&post_type=episode">Roman Mars Describes Santa Fe As It Is</a></p><p><i>Note: This series is made possible by the all-new 2024 Lexus GX and SiriusXM. </i></p> <p><p>Subscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes of 99% Invisible ad-free and a whole week early.&nbsp;<br><br>Start a free trial now on Apple Podcasts or by visiting <a href="http://siriusxm.com/podcastsplus." target="_blank">siriusxm.com/podcastsplus</a>.&nbsp;</p></p><br/> <p>Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
