Launch of Thrive 105-93 Report, Cleveland

Launch of the Thrive 105-95 report for new vision for the #10 bus corridor and the neighborhoods it connects. The proposed streetscape, transit, and economic development enhancements seek to provide better access to employment, improve public safety, support healthier lifestyles. The 7 mile long E 93rd Street, Woodhill Rd and E105th Street corridor engages 8 neighborhoods with significant vacancy challenges. The planning effort includes BRT level amenities for transit riders and establishes redevelopment plans and design guidance for 6 strategic corridor neighborhoods.

"Dabbawalas of Mumbai" at Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism

Film by Vineet Diwadkar "Food dal Cucchiaio al Mondo" exhibition Museo Nazionale delle Arti del XXI Secolo Rome Italy, 2015. The dabbawalas famously collect homemade lunch from kitchens across Mumbai, and then sort, transport, sort, and deliver them to working men and women throughout the city. They do this without a site register, but with an innovative notation system which marks the source and delivery train stations and buildings. This film follows the dabbawalas through a single day in January 2015. The film by Vineet Diwadkar was exhibited as part of ‘Dabbawalas of Mumbai’ exhibit with RMA Research and Rajesh Vora at the MAXXI Foundation in Rome for the “Food dal cucchaio del mondo” exhibition on the architectural issues surrounding food, curated by Pippo Ciorra with Giulia Ferracci, Alessio Rosati and Alessandra Spagnoli. From the MAXXI Foundation: “Over 50 works by different artists and architects, in a presentation that ranges from the dimension of the human body to that of the planet, from the kitchen to the home, from the city to the region and the world, tackle the global political, social, urban and economic effects that the production, distribution, consumption and disposal of food have on communities and territories.” http://www.diwadkar.net/project/dabbawalas/

Short film exhibited as part of 'Dabbawalas of Mumbai' with Rahul Mehrotra, Michael Jen, and Rajesh Vora for this exhibition on informality. Presented as part of "Five Technology Commons: Moving" at the Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism, curated Youngseok Lee and Jeffrey S. Anderson.

From the Seoul Biennale: "Moving is much more than an instrumental process of reaching a certain destination, potentially the most socially interactive of the commons. Hence, the walking city is the healthy city. It is an energy-intensive activity, accounting for a large percentage of overall carbon emissions. Electromobility, sharing schemes for unipersonal or logistic vehicles, devices with cognitive and learning capacities are now spreading worldwide, anticipating decentralized urban transport infrastructures with a minimal carbon footprint, new forms of social and spatial organizations, and new kinds of productive functions within the city."
