Now Available! Urban Voids: grounds for change
Friday October 1, 2010
What does a city do to respond to its vacancy crisis? What could Philadelphia imagine for its future, what ideas might be generated if we looked at the 40,000 vacant properties counted (thus far) as assets, not as liabilities? How might the repurposing of this land inform new ways of living in the urban environment?
Featuring essays by key participants and an illustrated finalist gallery, URBAN VOIDS: grounds for change explores the innovative community engagement process and international ideas competition that challenged residents and designers to imagine a sustainable reuse of the vacant land in Philadelphia.
