The Edge of the City: Architecture and Landscape

Session I: May 22-June 16

Session I: College/Adult PNNY 0314 Section A

This Manhattan studio on the future of the waterfront examines the space on the edges of New York City where the earth meets the sea and the sky (and not found on any tourist map). This investigation is conducted by formulating questions about the future of the built and natural environment and then answering these questions using strategies from in- and outside the field of architecture. Outcomes will include plans for small public buildings, landscapes, parks, piers, and boats produced through drawing by hand, drawing on the computer, and three-dimensional models. Note: This course is available for graduate credit. Students enrolling at the graduate level should indicate this status on the Registration Form.
