Play, entertainment and recreation have historically produced some of the most basic dimensions of urban experience in New York City. The idea of urban recreation today, even though in many ways still related to its 20th century beginnings, is much more complex than ever before. In this studio, we will collaborate with the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation in order to explore the nature of urban play and recreation today.

This class will review class research to date.
