Abstract

The Urban Design Studio from Spring 1995, “Urban Regeneration and Housing in a Transitional Economy: Lublin, Poland” was a seminar led by Professors Mona Serageldin and David Neilson in the Spring 1994 semester at the Graduate School of Design (GSD) at Harvard University. The 1995 Studio continued a series of studies on urban issues in societies undergoing economic restructuring, institutional transformation, and social change – specifically Lublin, Poland.

The 1995 topic built off a real development strategy written by the Unit for Housing and Urbanization in 1994-1996, for the urban environment and housing situation in Lublin. See original reports: “Lublin Local Initiatives Program” & “Lublin Old Town Rehabilitation Project,” Urban Upgrading in Lublin, Poland, 1994-2000.

Curriculum components include an implementation strategy for public and private roles, public investment strategies, leveraging and cost-recovery options, housing typologies, street cross-sectional typologies, land use patterns, and block structures. Documents include a studio overview, syllabus and an extensive report on “Urban Regeneration and Housing” in Lublin, Poland.
