2008 Rotch Scholarship

.

Now that the travel portion to the Rotch Travelling Scholarship has come to an end it is time to take a closer look at Boston’s Government Center. During the following months a design charrette will be undertaken, taking into account lessons learned from European civic spaces and how they might be applied to improve Boston’s civic realm, restoring Boston’s Civic Center as the symbolic and intrinsic heart of the city.
