Abstract :
Victoria Marshall and Brian McGrath have developed and transferred the ecological model of patch dynamics to urban landscape design. It is an approach that stresses the resilient, flexible and adaptable nature of cities, interacting with a notion of disturbance ecology rather than a benign nature. Here they apply their design approach to Hoboken, on the New Jersey Gold Coast, which, only a hop and a skip from Manhattan, directly across the Hudson from the Financial District, remains culturally and economically diverse.
