Institute for Public Architecture

About

The Institute for Public Architecture (IPA) offers the Independent Project Residency, an 11-week live-in program at the historic Block House on Governors Island, inviting emerging and mid-career practitioners in architecture, urbanism, design, art, and research to develop independent projects focused on the public realm. Fellows live and work in a communal environment, engage with the public through Open House events, and culminate in an exhibition of their work. The program provides access to NYC's networks while offering solitude on the island, with facilities including living accommodations, studio, and library.
