This lab combines and applies the principles and practices of placemaking to a specific topical project involving an actual planning and design situation. The course considers physical, social, economic, cultural, and political factors to produce a viable design and ensure successful management of a specific public place. Students work as a team to accomplish that goal. The lab includes lectures, site visits, written reports, and input from official and community representatives and stakeholders.
