Layered Urbanisms

Three innovative architects--Gregg Pasquarelli of SHoP, Galia Solomonoff, and Mario Gooden of Gooden + Huff--at Yale. Layered Urbanisms presents critical discussions and illustrations of urban research and design analysis as carried out in advanced studios with young architects investigating ways to design new urban spaces for New York. Themes include Versioning: Privately Owned Public Space in Lower Manhattan; Civic Spaces for the Atlantic Yards in Brooklyn; and Mapping Cultures for a security center and global theater at the U.N.
