Cityscape: Design and Disaster

HUD.GOV HUDUser.gov
eList


From: HUD USER News
 
The theme of the new issue of Cityscape is the
contribution that faculty and students from schools of
planning, engineering, and architecture made to the
reconstruction of Gulf Coast communities following
Hurricane Katrina in 2005. What they did and what they
learned should be valuable to any scholar or public
official involved in service learning projects. Often
supported by grants from HUD, the efforts of dedicated
and resourceful faculty and students are reported and
analyzed in a symposium of 11 articles guest-edited by
Kathleen Dorgan, Michael Monti, and Kinnard Wright.
Although the new Cityscape can be ordered in print for a
nominal charge (information follows), links to the
individual articles are provided below.
