BLACK SPACES plants a stake in the ground.  BlackSpace NYC is a collective of over two dozen active professionals with experience in urban planning, architecture, real estate development, urban design, and the arts. BlackSpace was formed in Brooklyn, NY as a brunch group after Harvard Graduate School of Design’s 2015 Black in Design Conference (BiD). As Black urbanists and residents of Black enclaves throughout the City, the one thing we returned to over and over in our monthly discussions was that often, we were the only black or brown faces at the table about policy decisions that affected predominantly Black and marginalized communities. ​more>
