Human City

Paddy Steinschneider is the president of Gotham Design and Community Development. He is a placemaker, land use planner, developer and, of course, a designer. Paddy currently resides in Dobbs Ferry, New York where he runs Gotham Design and, in his spare time, is the COO of CNU, New York. He holds a master in architecture from Columbia University. Paddy integrates every stakeholder in the whole creation and implementation of real estate developments. He often instigates the project, identifying the need with his keen eye, then taking them all the way to completion. In part two of this two part series we dig into Paddy's philisophies towards urbanism. What is urbanism really? We talk about the roots of New Urbanism and how the movement started. Finally, we talk about how legacy cities may be the future backbone support of the US economy and provide an everlasting commonwealth for anyone in a dire situation. Compact, complete, complex, connected, convivial communities. Links: CNU Dunay Plater-Zyberk (DPZ) Do
