“There’s no there there.” Gertrude Stein originally coined this phrase to describe her pain upon seeing her childhood home had been raised and replaced by sprawling suburban development. The phrase hints at what many perceive as a sense of place. Developers routinely confront this idea, whether it be a tract under consideration for redevelopment, or an empty lot. Creating “there” is the ultimate success for any development, making the sense of place palpable. PRISM is uniquely qualified to help developers crystalize their concepts and render the vision of “there” in 3D.
