Urban Design Associates (UDA; formerly known as UDA Architects) is an international urban design and architecture firm headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
History
Urban Design Associates (UDA) was founded in 1964 by David Lewis, FAIA and Raymond Gindroz, FAIA as one of the earliest architecture firms to concentrate on the design of neighborhoods and cities.[2] Lewis and Gindroz pioneered methods for engaging citizens in the design of community centers, schools and neighborhoods.[3] The firm is known for refining and developing public planning process and authored “The Urban Design Handbook, Techniques and Working Methods,” a textbook published by W.W. Norton & Company.[4] UDA has advanced urban design as an important branch of the architecture profession and co-founder David Lewis was influential in creating the Regional Urban Design Assistance Team (R/UDAT)[5] service of the American Institute of Architects and organized the “Remaking Cities” conference held in Pittsburgh in 1988 to address post industrial cities.[6] UDA co-founder Ray Gindroz was also a founding member of the Congress of the New Urbanism and was influential in formulating policies and standards with the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development and the Congress for the New Urbanism for the design of mixed-income neighborhoods under the federal HOPE VI program.[7]
