“Eviction City” and architectural education

http://masteremergencyarchitecture.com/2012/workshop-begins-on-ciutat-meridiana/

Tomorrow students will be making their first site visit to Ciutat Meridiana, a peripheral neighborhood of Barcelona and the subject of their first workshop in the masters course. The focus will be on “recycling” the existing urban and architectural barriers, as well as addressing the social challenges emerging in a neighborhood with the highest eviction rate in all of Spain.
