14th Street Canal
Project | New York, NY
|
| The New York State Council on the Arts awarded Aaron Parker a grant for a bold design that would demonstrate principles for reintroducing public spaces into the urban fabric. Parker proposed to convert 14th Street, one of the busiest commercial corridors in Manhattan, into a canal. The idea springs from the street’s historic role as a boundary and seam – physically, between the unplanned Dutch settlement roads of Lower Manhattan and the 1811 Commissioner’s grid to the north; and socially, between Greenwich Village and the uptown districts above 14th. |
