Design & Politics: Competing for Resilience

Rebuild By Design Event:

Debate

Design & Politics: Competing for Resilience<

The first of three design debates moderated by Henk Ovink, Senior Advisor to Secretary Shaun Donovan of Housing and Urban Development, to be held at the Syracuse University Fisher Center, 19 E 31st Street.
Wednesday February 19, 2014, 6-8:30pm
"on process"
If the goal of a process is to drive a new level of resilience across a region, then the boundaries in which resilience efforts are typically conceived and implemented need to be restructured. Design is the mode of response put forth by RBD. The standard model for federal design competitions is to define an existing problem and solicit solutions from the best in the field. Yet, as highlighted by Sandy, the challenges of resilience defy political and disciplinary boundaries.

Susan's Perspective on Superstorm Sandy

Thu, 2012-11-01 21:34 — mdmcdonald

This e-mail may be more stream of consciousness than anything else but I'll do my best to organize my thoughts. I'll also include video links where I can.

Citizens did not follow the mandatory evacuation order because
- When they evacuated for Irene, they found that the places to which they evacuated were hit hard whereas the homes they left behind were fine.
- Many residents live in highrises and feel that as long as the water doesn't reach their apartment, they'll be safe. They stock up on batteries, food, water, and medication for a few days but not enough to sustain them for over a week without power.
- Folks living in houses figured that if things got really bad, they could flee at the last minute. They did not expect the water to flow in in such a violent fashion nor did they expect the water levels to rise as quickly nor as high as they did. A friend of mine thought she was prepared because parked her car in her driveway facing outward. I haven't been able to speak with her since Monday morning, but my guess is that her car is totaled and possibly has floated away.
