This course presents an overview of city planning and urban design by focusing on the history and theories of urbanism across history and geography. In addition to the lectures on urbanism, the course focuses on New York as a laboratory for studying urban form and design. Throughout the semester, students study selected examples of urban projects from New York and relate them to the texts and case studies discussed in class.
