Manhattan’s Public Spaces: Production, Revitalization, Commodification analyzes a series of architectural works and their contribution to New York’s public space over the past few decades. By exploring a mix of urban mechanisms, supportive frameworks, legal systems, and planning guidelines for the transformation of the city’s collective realm, the text frames Manhattan as a controversial landscape of interests and concerns to authorities, communities, and, very importantly, developers.The production, revitalization, and commodification of Manhattan’s public spaces, as a phenomenon and as a subject of study, also highlights the vicissitudes of the reconciliation of the many different agents, which are part of the process. The challenge of the book does not only lie in the analysis of good design but, more importantly, in how to understand the functional mechanisms for the current trends in the production of space for public use. A complex framework of actors, governance, and market monopolies, which invites the reader to participate in the debate of how these interventions contribute, or not, to an inclusive environment anchored in the existing built fabric.Manhattan’s Public Spaces invites reflection on the revitalization of the city’s shared space from all dimensions. Beautifully illustrated in black and white, with over 50 images, this book will be of interest to scholars and students in architecture, planning, and urban design.

Oasis y Vitrinas nos descubre dos ciudades en una. Por un lado, un Nueva York Oasis en plena euforia constructiva tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Una ciudad donde la diversidad de usos, la sensibilidad social, la exquisita sofisticación, la supervisión cercana y el continuo mantenimiento son claves a la hora de mantener el vulnerable equilibrio de la vida urbana. Por otro lado, el texto vuelve la mirada hacia un Nueva York contemporáneo. Un Nueva York Vitrina donde la presión del mercado inmobiliario, la sobreprotección, los intereses privados y políticos, la excesiva mercantilización y programación de usos, comprometen el carácter cívico del espacio abierto urbano. Una lectura que invita a la reflexión sobre el verdadero sentido de la revitalización de lo publico, entendida en relación con las interacciones que fomenta y que se producen más allá´ de las intenciones de los autores de los proyectos. Una oportunidad que no solo ahonda en la dimensión publica de las obras analizadas, sino que pretende arrojar luz al proceso, no siempre visible, de la elaboración de estas obras en el espacio publico: quien las propone, por que´ y a quienes van dirigidas.
