Jacqueline Tatom, assistant professor of architecture in the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts, presents student works from her studio “Elements of Metropolitan Design,” at the St. Louis Great Streets Symposium Oct. 17. Organized by the East-West Gateway Council of Governments, the symposium — at the Eric P. Newman Education Center — served as the kickoff event for the yearlong “Great Streets Initiative,” which seeks to empower communities to advocate for better street design. Tatom, a member of the Great Streets advisory board, has led design studios focusing on major roads in the St. Louis metropolitan area, notably Brentwood Boulevard, Interstate 64-Highway 40 and Hanley Road. Also pictured is Steve Nagle, director of planning for the Gateway Council.
