The Seward Park Urban Renewal Area (SPURA) is the largest undeveloped city-owned parcel of land south of 96th Street, and it has been a contested site since it was cleared for "renewal" more than 40 years ago.
Exploring SPURA, delves into the experience of living at SPURA now - the resources and restrictions - as well as the stories of today and the experience of the SPURA diaspora, displaced many years ago. The exhibition springs from research in the community and hopes to continue encouraging productive conversation about the site’s future.
Exploring SPURA is an exhibition by the New School's City Studio.
