The proposal posits a concept of 'addressable space' as a development strategy fostering new forms of social and cultural interaction. Public spaces for private exchanges, a meadow of micro properties, a new kind of real-estate supporting the mosaic of everyday living. With David Pysh.

An international competition seeking ideas for the redevelopment of New York City's Governors' Island, which after two centuries of continuous military use, is now 'vacant' after the departure of the Coast Guard in 1997. The project proposes converting the entire island into a municipal self-storage mega-structure made of glass. Manhattan residents are allocated a storage space on the island proportional to their property in the city. Envisioned as a public monument to the city's accumulation of stuff that it can no longer accommodate, yet simply can't part with. With David Pysh, Jennifer Whitburn, and Wanda Wilmore.
