New Public Sites
Walking Tours - DC
Graham Coreil-Allen
September 17 - October 31
part of OPTIONS '09

 
Between a suburban strip mall and its urban surroundings there lies a poetic amalgam of spaces both epic and discrete. Situated within the disparate zone where the Trinidad neighborhood and the Atlas District overlap, the New Public Sites walking tour will investigate some of the invisible sites and overlooked features within our everyday environment. On the surface we will engage pavement, piles, gates and poles. Through the terrain we will explore berms, screens, voids and vistas. The tour will last approximately thirty-five minutes and traverse a wandering path under one mile in length.
 
All tours meet at the New Public Sites Kiosk in the Conner Contemporary courtyard at 1358-60 Florida Ave, NE - Washington DC 20002. Please arrive 15 minutes early, as tours will leave promptly as scheduled.
