2019 Gold Medalist Case Study

During the 2019 RBA cycle, the Selection Committee gravitated towards projects that “changed the narrative,” challenging assumptions and changing attitudes and perceptions about people, places, and urban development. This idea guided the RBA team as we documented the stories of the 2019 medalists along with the observations and lessons learned gleaned from the in-depth evaluation process and the Selection Committee’s thoughtful deliberations.

We are excited to share the Crosstown Concourse case study, first of five from our publication “Changing the Narrative: The 2019 Rudy Bruner Award for Urban Excellence”. It offers a compelling story of an unlikely team to take on a large, difficult endeavor with audacious goals. As the Selection Committee observed, “Crosstown Concourse is simultaneously bold and sensible, reinventing an outmoded retail warehouse into a community asset that addresses basic needs and common urban problems.” Click here to view the case study and learn more about this remarkable project.


 

Stay tuned for additional case studies and Lessons Learned about the 2019 RBA Winners.
