Student research

Students on our program were challenged to create projects that documented their experiences of the city, each using a particular thematic, methodological, and/or geographical focus. The diversity and richness of their projects reflects the complexity of the city of New York itself.

During the final week of the program, each student presented his or her project in situ. Over two very hot and sweaty — but rewarding — days, we traversed the city in two giant loops, tracing the students’ own physical and mental journeys through this shifting landscape.

Day 1:
