Bloustein and New Brunswick: Beyond Civic Square– Historic Preservation and Redevelopment Walking Tour
October 13 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
New Brunswick, NJ has many architectural gems that often go unappreciated. The city has also experienced significant redevelopment and in tandem, historic preservation versus development challenges. This tour will consider these diverse forces that typify many American cities.
The tour will begin at the entrance to the Bloustein School, Civic Square Building, 33 Livingston Avenue, New Brunswick, N.J. Participants should meet at 10:00 a.m. on Sunday, October 13. From the Civic Square Building, tour participants will walk down Livingston Avenue, return to George Street, tour downtown, and end by the Rutgers Barnes & Noble bookstore at about 12 noon.
Participants are welcome to join us at the Starbucks Cafe at the Rutgers Barnes & Noble bookstore for post-tour refreshments (buy your own) and conversation. This is a free, custom tour offered to members of the Bloustein School and APA-NJ communities. Spouses, significant others, children, friends and alumni are invited.
The tour guides are Drs. David and Barbara Listokin, who teach urban redevelopment and historic preservation courses at the Bloustein School.
