Now that summer has arrived, the weather is perfect for wandering around the city looking for new undiscovered buildings and neighborhoods. With this issue, the Downtown Alliance of New York launched a Doors of Downtown photo essay. If you can identify all of the doors in the photo essay, you may win a prize. For more information, go to the New Deadlines section.

THE CENTER: AIANY BLOG: The AIANY Chapter has launched a new blog. The Center features opinion pieces on architectural issues relevant to NY-based designers, firms, and projects, along with spotlight debates and discussions at the Center for Architecture and AIANY, and is an informal discussion board. Be sure to check it out regularly and contribute to the dialogue.

If you would like to become a regular contributor to The Center, please e-mail e-Oculus.


NOTE: In the last issue, the report “AIA Convention Advocates Civic Activism” featured a panel discussion at the AIA Convention, Civic Architecture: Design and Identity in a Changing Society. AIANY member Barbara Nadel, FAIA, moderated the discussion. We regret the omission.
