Interiority has nothing to do with the inside or the inhabitable space of a building but rather of a condition of being within.” - Peter Eisenman vii Blurring the Disconnect: [Inter]positioning Place within a Struggling Context Eric Luttmann ABSTRACT Downtown Tampa, a struggling city core, will continue to struggle as it holds no true identity to its relationship with important surrounding context, as well as within itself.
