THE MAYOR’S INSTITUTE ON CITY DESIGN
-
Ms. Collins has participated in four individual advisory symposiums on behalf of the Mayors Institute of City Design, a program of the National endowment for the Arts dedicated to improving the design and livability of America’s cities. The format for these small group symposiums was to connect mayors with urban design and development experts to address individual case studies of critical issues. Each mayor presented a specific design or development challenge in his or her respective city, and asked the resource panel for solutions. As a resource expert Ms. Collins was also asked to make presentations regarding the value of design in a city’s development efforts. Issues raised by various mayors ranged from neighborhood sustainability, public housing redesign, creation of successful civic spaces, waterfront conversion, and transit-oriented development.
During the mid-1990’s, Ms. Collins was invited to join the four expert advisory panels at Mayor’s Institute symposiums sponsored by M.I.T., Harvard University, the University of California at Berkeley, and the University of Virginia.
