2007: Reconnecting the National Mall to the Capital City in the 21st Century
Chair Judy Feldman's 2007 talk at the National Building Museum.
"My comments, in the Commemoration and Symbolic Narrative session of this Symposium, focus on reconnecting the National Mall to the larger capital city by creating an updated, democratized national narrative for the National Mall as well as the city as whole that provides local residents as well as visitors and tourists with a more comprehensive, culturally rich, and exciting story of who we are as a city and a nation. This will require DC Government and Congress to work together. I wish to thank my colleague W. Kent Cooper FAIA who has collaborated with me in developing these ideas."
