The New York City Privately Owned Public Space (POPS) Logo Design Competition is being held to solicit a design for a new POPS logo that may be featured on signage at over 550 POPS located across the city. A new POPS logo would be seen by millions of residents, workers, and visitors on any given day and encourage the public to take full advantage of these valuable, but sometimes unknown, public spaces.

About the Jose Marti Park Redesign RFQ:
Through this RFQ, Van Alen and the City of Miami seek to commission a multi-disciplinary design team for the project that offers the full range of professional urban design, landscape architecture, and engineering services and includes at least one Florida-licensed firm. The design team will work with Van Alen Institute and the City to ensure that this treasured public space serves the present and future needs of the Little Havana community. Innovative and thoughtful design should allow the park to minimize flood impacts to the neighborhood, adapt to sea level rise over time, and enhance waterfront access for residents. Ideally this project results in a solution that can be replicated in other places experiencing similar conditions.

Based on themes suggested by the exhibition "Infinito Vão – 90 Anos de Arquitetura Brasileira" (Infinite Span – 90 Years of Brazilian Architecture), the "Architecture in Dialogue: Portugal and Brazil" seminar invites 13 architects from both countries to debate the distinctive features of new architectural production in both nations, and the extent to which they converge or diverge, on February 23rd, from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM.

Using approaches such as program, technique, infrastructure, and cultural heritage as a starting point, the seminar will assess the current state of architecture in these two sister countries, separated by the Atlantic and by their own unique cultural dynamics.
