This month’s DAGspace
In this month’s DAGspace he takes us along on an adventure of creative rediscovery as he draws what might be (or might have been) at several of Philadelphia’s design hotspots: Penn’s Landing, Independence Park, I-95, and Market East. Read Rich’s article.
DAGSpace articles are designed to be the personal views of their authors. We are looking for insightful opinion pieces which will open our eyes to things we hadn’t noticed before, propose solutions to problems we need to fix, or share treasures about this City which will make us all proud. If you have an idea you’d like to write about, contact David Brownlee atdbrownle@sas.upenn.edu.
