HGG 8A - The Shape of the City: Walking ToursSemester Hours: 1
Tours will be held rain or shine. New York City is a great laboratory of architecture and a fascinating example of the ways in which urban space has been, is, and will be used. Although a giant hodge-podge to those unfamiliar with it, the City is really a collection of smaller places. Through these walking tours, student will begin to understand these places. They will see how urban spaces are shaped and what elements define some of the principal neighborhoods of New York City. They will also begin to understand the nature of urban architecture and how architecture shapes the urban experience. Students will be encouraged to explore on their own Students will be expected to keep a journal in which they record their experiences on the walking tours and provide a thorough and thoughtful discussion of those experiences. Students will hand in a different journal for each weekend’s tours. Grading will be based on the thoroughness of the student’s analysis and discussion. Can be taken for 1-4 s.h. May only be taken P/F.
