Q&A with PNJ: Racism and its Impact on the American City, Trenton as a Case Study

November 4, 2020 by Emily Manz

November 12th, 2020
1PM on Zoom
Watch Recording of Session

Using New Jersey’s capital city as a case study, PNJ Past President, Trenton resident and architect John Hatch will trace how structural racism has negatively impacted the development and progress of American cities and towns, and how it has shaped virtually every aspect of our built environment. One could say no aspect of American society has had as negative an impact on historic preservation and our historic cities as systemic racism.

——
John Hatch, FAIA, is an architect and principal with Clarke Caton Hintz, an architecture, planning and landscape architecture firm located in Trenton, NJ. In his more than 30 years with CCH, John has managed the design and construction of a wide array of architecturally significant buildings. These include George Pruitt Hall at Thomas Edison State University, the new School of Business at NJCU, the restoration of Morven, the former governor’s mansion in Princeton, and multiple phases of the Roebling Complex Redevelopment in Trenton. His work includes new and renovated facilities for Colleges and Universities, as well as public and independent schools; multi-unit and senior housing projects; historic and urban revitalization projects; as well as significant commercial and civil projects. All of his projects address issues of context, civic life and sustainability. In addition to his design work, John has written and lectured about such topics as historic preservation, sustainability and urban redevelopment.

He is a 32 year resident of the City of Trenton and sits on the Trenton Landmarks Commission as well as the boards of the Princeton Area Community Foundation, Passage Theatre, the NJ Capital Philharmonic and the Trenton Historical Society.
