The reimagining of the oldest building on Broad Street
This presentation by Lindsey Scannapieco, the Founder of Scout, will focus on the approach and ethos in reimagining the iconic buildings at Broad and Pine, where Strickland, Furness, and Haviland left their influence. Since 1892, these spaces have nurtured artists, makers, and educators — giving rise to institutions like the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Now, we have the opportunity to build on that foundation, transforming these interconnected buildings into a dynamic ecosystem of studios, small businesses, non-profits, and artist residences—an open-ended, ever-evolving place of exchange. Informed by experience executing incremental development and a vision of reanimating these spaces with meaning and possibility, we are hoping to not merely preserve the architecture; but also seek to restore the conditions for creativity and community to grow.
