Concluding the fourth annual Mayors’ Institute on City Design (MICD) Just City Mayoral Fellowship-a collaboration between MICD and Harvard GSD’s Just City Lab-the Fellows discuss strategies for using planning and design interventions to address racial, social, and environmental injustice in each of their cities.

His governance emphasizes strategic planning, budget management, and cross-disciplinary collaboration, resulting in notable enhancements to public safety, public works, and public health. Beyond leadership, Tuerk, an enthusiastic runner, language lover, and family man, truly embodies the commitment of a leader devoted to shaping his community’s future.

Mayor Remy Drabkin, McMinnville, Oregon Mayor Remy Drabkin of McMinnville, Oregon, a dedicated public servant for over 12 years, is the city’s first female, Jewish, and queer-identified Mayor. Serving on the City Council and Planning Commission, she established the Affordable Housing Commission and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) Advisory Committee.

Remy actively engages in state-level advocacy, appointed by Governor Brown as a Director on the Oregon Wine Board. Co-founder of Wine Country Pride, she promotes LGBTQ+ Pride celebrations and established the world’s first Queer Wine Fest through her winery, Remy Wines, emphasizing sustainability and carbon sequestration.

Re-elected six times to the State Assembly, he secured the Mayor’s office in a 2017 special election. Focused on rebuilding the middle class and promoting economic growth through technology and public-private partnerships, Mayor Mason recently started his second full four-year term. A Racine Case High School graduate, he holds a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy from the University of Wisconsin - Madison and is a devoted family man.
Mayor Kate Colin, San Rafael, CA In 2020, Kate Colin made history as the first female Mayor of San Rafael since its incorporation in 1847.

Where do you stand in the field of architecture? The seemingly innocuous question is, in fact, loaded with determining metaphors. To think of architecture as a field entails a horizontal space where other participants are in view, but separated by gaps that can be measured relationally. To imagine taking up a spot on this field is to propose a self-conscious, architectural subject that occupies...

This selection, often called a “dataset,” can be generic or custom-made; either way, Generative AI automates the imitation and replication of some of its common visual features, often known in the past as style...

    Great question from the audience about ticks and lime disease. Nature-like parks look great in cities but tall meadows include the increased probability of these bugs. I suppose for now it's either trying to prevent the diseases via vaccines and antibiotics or separating meadows and walkways so that the risk of people catching diseases is lowered.

    I grew up in Scituate and after college lived in the Boston area until 1999/2000 and I got to witness the Big Dig get seriously underway. I also remember when the Seaport or Innovation District was still the Commonwealth Flats and it was mostly parking lots, abandoned railroad tracks, and disused wharves. But the Norwegian Seamen's Chapel was there as was Anthony's Pier 4, the Commonwealth Pier (an expo center), and the No-Name Restaurant made statewide famous by Jerry Williams of WRKO.
