Abstract
THIS ARTICLE IS PART of a larger research project studying the relationship between social class and architectural design and scale in the city; more specifically, the relationship between working–class life and the visual morphology of the urban street. Using Fourteenth Street in Manhattan as the locus, I identify various zones of activity along the street and the interactions found within them and then consider what role design might play in retaining the presence of working–class street life and whether the search for human scale in design depends upon an understanding of social class and sociocultural dimensions interaction, [architecture and interaction, urban planning, visual scale and social class, urban design and redevelopment]
