Storm in the City. What can architecture, urban planning, and more specifically the Flemish cities learn from New York's approach?

Maarten Van Acker was given the chance in 2011-2012 to teach and perform research at Parsons-The New School for Design in New York, thanks to a grant from the Belgian American Educational Foundation. Commissioned by the journal RUIMTE, Maarten wrote a series of essays on the interface between life and urban design in New York. Within this project, Maarten aims to elaborate the articles into an international publication with GPRC label.
