Revitalizing the Historic Downtowns and Main Streets of Our Communities

 | Sponsored Content

A healthy downtown is both a symbol of community pride, history, and a civic and social center for positive interaction.

At Pratt’s School of Continuing and Professional Studies (SCPS), we have developed a Downtown Revitalization Certificate Program, to empower those who seek to turn Downtown and Main Street challenges into economic development and public space design opportunities. This program is of particular value to architects, urban designers, and planners (both private-sector and public-sector/ municipalities), Main Street Managers, Business Improvement District Directors (B.I.D.’s) and their staffs, Chambers of Commerce and community planning groups, historic preservationists, graduate – level students, and many more. Participants gain introductory knowledge and skills required to meet the needs of government, business and non-profits to plan, design, and implement efforts for the Downtown Revitalization of their communities, and their Main Streets / Commercial Corridor Districts, etc., and to help meet the goals of federal, state and local programs such as the NYS Office of Community Renewal’s New York Main Street Program, NYC-Small Business Service’s Storefront Improvement Program, and many others, etc.

Opening of "Renegades: Bruce Goff and the American School of Architecture at Bizzell"

“A new school, probably the only indigenous one in the United States” is how the architect Donald MacDonald described Bruce Goff and Herb Greene’s influence on the University of Oklahoma School of Architecture from 1947 through the 1960s. The famous architects transformed the ways architecture was learned, taught and practiced, creating a uniquely American architectural style now represented in an archive at the University of Oklahoma Libraries and displayed in an exhibition in Bizzell Memorial Library.

Renegades: Bruce Goff and the American School of Architecture at Bizzell features selections from the American School Archive, including drawings and virtual tours of three

ROB|ARCH 2018: Robotic Fabrication in Architecture, Art, and Design

The advent of robotics in the creative and construction industries has led to an amazing revolution, changing not just how things are designed and made, but also transforming knowledge cultures, politics and economics that surround them. As such, the ROB|ARCH 2018 conference – hosted by the NCCR Digital Fabrication and ETH Zurich – will continue this path, developing and revealing novel insights, applications and impacts of this transformation within the scientific, creative, and entrepreneurial domains, including, for example, architecture, structural design, civil and process engineering, art and design, and robotics. A particular focus lies upon cross-disciplinary approaches and applications, providing state-of-the-art knowledge, techniques and methods of robotics not just in individual areas of exploration, but also beyond. These ideals aspire to complement the transformation processes of emerging robotic research and applications, and to redefine cross-disciplinary work in an era of global digitalisation and knowledge transfer. Key topics and issues of ROB|ARCH 2018 include autonomous control systems, advanced construction, collaborative design tools, computerised materials and structures, adaptive sensing and actuation, on-site and cooperative robotics, machine-learning, human-machine interaction, large-scale robotic fabrication and networked workflows.
