A perfect beach read. Dive in. NYRA no. 41 is here! In this issue, Aaron Timms portends possible futures for Sunnyside Yard; Jake Romm reflects on the Gaza solidarity encampments; Jael Goldfine tries to keep focused. Charlie Dulik critiques flip-lanthropy, and Thomas de Monchaux visits Tuscany via Wegmans. Marianela D'Aprile gets claustrophobic at MoMA, Douglas Spencer begs to differ with Mark Foster Gage, Zain Khalid rejects millennial pessimism, and Izzy Kornblatt deconstructs the Architecture of Influence. Hannah Williams explores a murderer’s manse, Alana Pockros analyzes the algorithm, Christopher Hawthorne remembers Vincent Scully, Claudia Ross reassesses Catherine Opie, Samuel Medina chews on Stalinist confectionery, and Marco Roth flattens New York University’s megalithic new omniuse complex.

New York Review of Architecture reposted this
We enjoyed organizing and co-hosting this event with Dattner - it was good to pair the call for a better public realm with deep technical knowledge by people who are in the field striving to make it happen. ...I also appreciated they let us call it "Pissed Off."
We leaned into being PISSED OFF last week with a spirited talk about the lack of public bathrooms in NYC and the origins of this hostility and resulting humanitarian issue. We talked policy and funding - and even found our way to celebrate a few examples of good public bathroom design. I was proud to moderate the evening’s talk. Thanks to New York Review of Architecture for hosting with Dattner Architects, to NYRA’s Nicolas Kemper and Aaron Timms, to friends Peter Coombe and Jennifer Sage of Sage and Coombe Architects, and to my Dattner Architects colleagues Gabriella Orsi, RA and Troy Lacombe for sharing their experiences— and to our engaged audience.
