| dc.description.abstract | This project seeks to solve the issue of public housing that America is facing in the
present day. This housing sector is in crisis, and needs a renewed emphasis on quality
and regard for human dignity, as well as an enhanced understanding of dwelling. The method through which this problem will be researched and dealt with is primarily
investagtive research, looking into the oft overlooked precedents of communist spaces
in the historic USSR. By investigating these issues and their ultimate culmination in the case of Pruitt Igoe, as well as the general issues of dwelling and public space, this thesis
seeks to solve the issue of public housing in a very particular case: specifically, on the
former site of Pruitt Igoe, where the failures of the past will inform the success of the future. | en_US |
