Bronx Harlem River Studio

The project is carried out by faculty and students at the Department of Urban Studies and Planning, School of Architecture + Planning at MIT. It addresses the range of practical approaches involved in evaluating and planning sites within the context of natural and urban systems. Specifically the project tackles the following question: how might a mosaic of industrial contaminated land uses along an urban river be deployed to create a coherent, ecologically-based strategy for connecting a river to its adjacent neighborhoods.
