Bajo el nombre de “Le Corbusier: An Atlas of Modern Landscapes”, la exposición fusionará arquitectura, diseño, arte, fotografía y escritos del arquitecto Francés enfocado en los diferentes lugares, edificios y paisajes que visitó e imaginó durante su vida y carrera.

La exposición será divida en 4 secciones, cubriendo desde el paisaje de los objetos encontrados, el paisaje doméstico, el paisaje de la arquitectura y la ciudad moderna, y los territorios del urbanismo y el masterplan. Habrá 5 interiores reconstruidos, también películas mudas grabadas por el mismo Le Corbuiser en los años 30, modelos originales, grabaciones con sonido y acuarelas.

High-speed Rail Hubs Attracting Development to Urban Centers | The Architecture of the City | Scoop.it

High-speed rail (HSR) has long been touted as a tool of economic development in addition to its primary function of improving connectivity and ease of travel. Now, high-speed rail also has the potential to contribute to the nation’s urban revitalization trends.

 

Because HSR and other rail hubs are often located in urban centers, they are attracting an influx of tourism and activity to these cities. The mixed-use and transit-oriented nature of development around HSR hubs further supports the growth of city centers and downtowns.

Hotel development is particularly advantageous around these hubs because of their accessibility to those arriving by rail. These hotels also benefit from the mixed-use environment of urban centers, which provide visitors with walkable access to retail, restaurants, and attractions. In exchange, hotels and their guests energize the surrounding area with human activity...

What do you do with an outdated elevated train line running through a crowded neighborhood in New York City?  In the 1980s, residents called for the demolition of the line as the eyesore since it was blamed for economic struggles of the community and increased criminal activity.  Unfortunately demolition is extremely expensive.  However, this one particular abandoned line has recently been converted into an elevated green space that has economically revitalized the local real estate.  Find out more about this innovated park and project.
