This past week I went on a trip around Boston with my studio class to see the history of Government Center. When we went to the Historic New England site at the Otis House Museum we got to see all these original drawings and sketches by Kallmann Mckinnel as well as photos of Scollay Square, and the Boston Fire that took out the Financial District. It was extremely interesting to find out different things about Boston that I had never knew before.
In short, you can't design until you know the history of the place that your designing in.
