It was wonderful to see so many Fellows this past Tuesday night at Double Crown restaurant for the 2010 Fall Fellows’ Dinner, The Social Life of (Very) Small Urban Spaces! Thanks again to all of our presenters, including NYC DOT plaza program director Andy Wiley-Schwartz, architect and Fellow Claire Weisz, artist Mary Miss, and Snøhetta Times Square team members Maura Rockcastle and Claire Fellman. It was a wonderful evening, and a truly provocative discussion. Make sure to check out our photo album on Facebook if you were unable to attend, and stay tuned for information on our next Breakfast Club — we hope to see you there.

NEW YORK \ 2030 Fellows Dinner, Harvard Club, New York
Friday, November 16th, 2007In preparation for the New York 2030 symposium, Institute fellows hosted a dinner and informal discussion with some of the symposium’s speakers. This was an occasion to exchange ideas on the future of the Institute in view of its 30th anniversary in October 2008. A special surprise tribute was given to Ann Ferebee by two longstanding fellows, Jane Thompson and Lance Brown. Leaving the Institute after thirty years, Ann would focus on writing a design history book for which she was awarded a Fellows Grant from the Institute. She would also have a visiting research fellowship at the Canadian Center for Architecture.
