{"product_id":"re-providence","title":"Re-Providence","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis report summarizes the work produced in the Introductory Urban Design Studio during the fall semester, 2011 in the Department of Architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The studio was taught by Michael Dennis and Alistair McIntosh. The eleven participants were students in the SMarchS Architecture and Urbanism post-professional degree program.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe studio subject was the downtown area of Providence, Rhode Island. Like many American cities, the central area of Providence was devastated by Òurban renewal,Ó and arterial strangulation during the post-World War II era. Despite many recent positive initiatives, however, downtown Providence still appears largely abandoned. It is therefore an ideal urban design study.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Urban Design Studio Fall 2011","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44388861935777,"sku":"9781111112305","price":48.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0462\/1120\/3233\/files\/18k4m88j-front-shortedge-384.jpg?v=1748265960","url":"https:\/\/bookswholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/re-providence","provider":"BooksWholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
