Print Grand Army Plaza

CUP worked with high school students from Brooklyn College’s College Now program to investigate how a redesign of Grand Army Plaza might actually get implemented.

To find out how decisions get made, the crew interviewed folks from the city’s Department of Design and Construction, the Prospect Park Alliance, and the Department of Transportation; they took photographs, traced maps, pulled quotes, and punched keys to create a large-format poster that looks at how big ideas get built.

You can check out the project here.
