The project was developed through conversations with James W. Hughes, then dean of Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy, and David Listokin, professor at Bloustein’s Center for Urban Policy Research, and an expert in historic preservation. Chats about their shared interests in history, community development and Rutgers, inspired the trio to channel their knowledge into a book that charts the architectural trajectory of College Avenue Campus from its Old Queens origins in 1808 to the present.
