    Through the “Block Game,” participants reckoned with the physical constraints of the space in an effort to reconcile their many hopes and visions for a new community center.

Assistant Professor Nandini Bagchee’s essay “Studio Report: Design and Advocacy in the South Bronx” has been published by the Architectural League’s online magazine, Urban Omnibus. The article discusses the work on the H.E.Arts Community Center (Lincoln Recovery Center building, 349 West 140th Street) from Professor Bagchee’s Advanced Design Studio in Fall 2016.

Professor Bagchee along with B Arch students Sarwat Yunis, Julian Usman, and Jeremy Iannucci also presented their work at a public event in the South Bronx in April.
