2012-13 Preservation Competition
The Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture (ACSA)
1735 New York Ave., NW
Washington, DC, 20006 USA
This competition is intended to challenge students in multi-disciplinary teams in the fields of architecture, preservation, landscape architecture, urban planning, engineering and other cross-disciplines, to rethink the abandoned early nineteenth century fort. Participants are asked to preserve, interpret and re-imagine the extant historic fabric as emblematic of the country’s early attempts to create a federal defense system and the site as an eco-tourist and educational destination. Solutions should explore the issues of access, the relationship between preservation and design (both architectural and landscape), off-grid energy consumption, changing climate patterns, water management, land use, and habitat protection. Participants should investigate how the preservation of this historically significant site can provoke a profound rethinking of our current conventions about preservation, design, community, the environment, and heritage tourism.
