(Sub)Urban Clusters: A Connective Spine in the Urban Core

Abstract Details

2021, MARCH, University of Cincinnati, Design, Architecture, Art and Planning: Architecture.
The suburbs are ending… not ending in the final way one may think of like a bad movie, but ending as they are known today. It is documented that a gamut of people are choosing to live differently than people of the past. Instead of the traditional American Dream of a house, on some land with a fence, there are multiple dreams that do not end up in the suburbs. Americans are situating themselves closer to where they work, depending less on car ownership, locating themselves near entertainment, and focusing on urban spaces. In building the case for an urban cluster neighborhood, this thesis proposal examines the history of suburb development, verbs that represent design methods, and how thoughtful planning and design can construct volumes, buildings, and the in between spaces that offer a unique opportunity for opulent culture. The results suggest that isolation in the suburbs is no match for socialization is the sub-urban dream.
