Academic – The Tulane City Center will involve the professional and postprofessional degree programs at the Tulane School of Architecture through instruction, research and outreach, as well as ongoing urban design and management issues. A focus on applied research and community engagement will expand existing service-learning initiatives at the Tulane School of Architecture in a manner that benefits the student and faculty bodies and the communities with whom they work. Professional – As a resource, the Tulane City Center will provide a place for architects, planners, developers and community organizations to seek design advice, guidance and coordination on urban developments. These services may be for larger scale visions such as a commercial corridor or a neighborhood master plan, or, for discrete building scale projects. In both instances, the objective is to communicate and encourage the development of an enhanced public realm. Social – The Tulane City Center expand networks with community based organizations, social clubs, and neighborhood groups. Through specific partnerships it will provide ongoing design services to address community-identified priorities. It will facilitate ongoing conversations that enrich the community partners’ knowledge and understanding of urban principles that create and sustain a better city. In this way, the Tulane City Center will be a source for ideas and information to help community groups imagine their possibilities and achieve their goals. Municipal – The Tulane City Center will be a place that is complimentary to the efforts of the City Planning Commission, Regional Planning Commission, the Preservation Resource Center and the Historic Districts and Landmarks Commission. It will support the activities of these groups, but will have the ability to think beyond the specific, often politically defined, boundaries of such institutions. The Tulane City Center therefore, will enhance the urban development potential for New Orleans. Global – The Tulane School of Architecture has a broad network of academic programs and specializations that has been constructed by the faculty and students over the years. These connections to other countries, cities and schools are a healthy resource for academic and professional collaborations and encourage a ‘design without borders’ between other places and our own.” Select Projects have included the following: ReInhabiting NOLA, November 2005. 150 person conference and report design and production. Completed February 2006. Funded by Fannie Mae Foundation. $50,000. AD Prop, 2006. Mapping of 493 adjudicated properties in six neighborhoods in assistance to the City of New Orleans. Compiling data from four disparate sources, we prepared documents for each neighborhood that included overall mappings, Sanborn maps with properties located, and data sheets with photographs for each property. These documents were made available to the City and prospective development corporations in their preparations for response to the City’s RFP to acquire the properties. This project was coordinated with the
National Vacant Properties Campaign and the City of New Orleans, employed six students and was funded by the Fannie Mae Foundation. $50,000. Road Home Professional Rebuilding Registry, 2007-2009. In response to an RFP issued through the Rome Home Program for the Louisiana Recovery Authority, we were award a $400,000, 2.5 year contract to aid in the development of an information-based website for article delivery for use by Road Home grant awardees. This resource will target issues of rebuilding and will include articles written by architecture faculties and professionals from across the State. We also will assist in the production of outreach and dissemination materials for conferences, exhibits and libraries. 10 th International Venice Architecture Biennale, US Pavilion, September 2006. “After the Flood: Building on Higher Ground”, TSA Exhibit Production and Installation Coordination. In conjunction with Architectural Record. 10 th International Venice Architecture Biennale, Italian Pavilion, September 2006. “Searching for Resilient Foundations: The Gulf Coast after Hurricane Katrina”, TSA URBANbuild Exhibit Production and Installation Coordination. In conjunction with University of Texas, Austin. New Orleans Community Design Center, Neighborhood Housing Services, New Orleans, LA. In order to address ongoing community recovery and rebuilding issues, we have partnered with a premier community development corporation as a vehicle to foster direct service to residences and businesses in the city. CITYbuild Consortium of Schools, Hosting Organization 2006-2010. Working as a liaison between design schools throughout the country and local communities, CITYbuild seeks to assist New Orleans residents and organizations in recovery. As the host, the Tulane City Center offers resources, lectures, tours, contacts, logistic advice and support, and has assisted over 15 schools on their visits to New Orleans. City Park, Because the environmental, design, recreational and educational activities of City Park in New Orleans are so inextricably linked, the ‘Green Studio at City Park’ aims to promote a sustainable network of urban forests, waterways, recreational and built and natural systems. Teamed with the Center for Bioenvironmental Research and the Tulane Business School, the Tulane City Center provides a venue in which to conduct, coordinate and provide outreach on research, educational, public and professional services including guidelines for new tree planting, invasive species removal and a series of design-build projects. This is a two-year initial phase to assist City Park in implementing a post-Katrina vision for one of the country’s largest and oldest urban parks.
