UPDATED DEADLINE: July 31st (extended from July 14th)
This spring, the Institute for Urban Design asked New Yorkers how they thought the city's public realm could be improved, and they responded with more than 500 ideas across the five boroughs.
Now it's your turn: we're asking architects, designers, artists, and urbanists to respond to the challenge! From now through July 31th, you can visit the By the City / For the City website, define your site based on what you find most interesting from New Yorkers' ideas, and then develop a brief proposal.
After submissions are in, the IfUD will convene a jury to select ten projects to receive $500 prizes--one for each borough, and five at the judges' discretion. Our distinguished panel of jurors includes: Kate Ascher, the Milstein Professor of Urban Development at Columbia’s Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation (GSAPP), a Principal at Happold Consulting, and author of The Works: Anatomy of a City; Barry Bergdoll, the Philip Johnson Chief Curator of Architecture and Design for the Museum of Modern Art; Learning from Las Vegas co-author and urbanist Denise Scott Brown; Architect magazine editor-in-chief Ned Cramer; Morphosis principal and Pritzker Prize-winner Thom Mayne; Urban planner and architect Toni Griffin; and WXY Principal and AIA Design Award-winner Claire Weisz.
Together, all of these ideas will form a collective portrait of how we imagine the future. The IfUD will include most of the ideas submitted in An Atlas of Possibility for the Future of New York, an exhibition and book that will launch at the first-ever Urban Design Week festival in New York City this September 15-20.
