Fellowship Summer of 2012 - Piero
The Piero N. Patri Fellowship in Urban Design is a hands-on position for a current graduate student or 2010/2011 graduate in urban design, architecture, landscape architecture or a related field. The fellowship provides the opportunity to gain firsthand experience working in the urban design and planning field on a project that will have a positive impact on the city of San Francisco and the Bay Area.
Projects are intended to provide career-related work experiences that will challenge graduate-level students, contribute to San Francisco, contribute to SPUR's mission and reflect the values of Piero N. Patri. SPUR will cooperate with the fellow in obtaining academic credit, if his or her institution allows. The selected fellow will be based in the San Francisco office of AECOM Design + Planning, where desk space, computer resources and professional mentorship will be provided.
San Francisco expects a significant increase in waterfront visitors during America’s Cup 34 in 2013. This year’s fellow will develop a program to engage visitors and neighbors with a visioning project about the San Francisco southeast waterfront. Drawing upon the findings of past Patri Fellowship projects (see links to past projects below), the fellow will study the history and development of the southeast waterfront and analyze opportunities to increase public access and awareness to further San Francisco’s Blue Greenway projects. Use of case studies will provide inspiration for the development of an interpretive strategy for providing tangible and intangible connections to this important area of San Francisco. The final deliverable will be an informational, web-based, multi-media tool with accompanying print component. The fellow will refer to past and potential plans and designs as benchmarks of progress and will create a project that will entice visitors and neighbors to better understand the potential future of the southeast waterfront.
Priority will be given to candidates who have a combined background in planning and social history/research or a related field and strong multi-media skills. Experience working with stakeholders in the southeastern neighborhoods is preferred.
