Modern American Housing; High-Rise, Reuse, Infill

The home defines us, and the way we are housed is central to our self image and culture. While always addressing market imperatives in terms of land use and form, housing is at one end of the spectrum obsessed with style and formal pattern-making, at the other with regulation and normative concepts of family. This book explores a range of contemporary American housing grouped according to three common typologies found in both small and large cities: high-rise, reuse, and infill.
The concept for the publication evolved from three visiting critic studios at the Syracuse University School of Architecture. The studios focused on these three building types, employing a case-study format as the basis for each studio’s design courses. Jared Della Valle and Andy Bernheimer of Della Valle Bernheimer based their studio on a high-rise site in the Hudson Yards of New York City that was an actual site for their firm; Julie Eizenberg of Koning Eizenberg Architecture set her project within the context of the renovation of an abandoned warehouse in downtown Syracuse; and Stanley Saitowitz of Stanley Saitowitz/Natoma Architects activated a variety of infill sites located along the expansion of the BART system in San Francisco. These studios sought to explore and bring together the most enlightened thinking about various forms of housing and other commercial types of development that might be engaged as they define our culture and revitalize our urban centers. Each architect approached the pedagogy of the studio in a different way and contributed an essay to this publication; they also, like curators of urban design, suggested projects that exemplify national models.
The suite of three studios and this publication were made possible through the generous support of Judith Greenberg Seinfeld, a Syracuse University trustee and an advisory board member of the School of Architecture. She understood the importance of giving students the tools to participate broadly in making and remaking our cities. We are appreciative of her vision and commitment to the work of the School and the University.
