Michael Graves’s design offers an unique and definitive view of the the heart of downtown Princeton. The photograph is from the handsome catalog accompanying the inaugural exhibition, “Return: Home.” |
It’s safe to say that both Jacques Tati and Maurice Sendak would feel at home in the renovated and expanded Paul Robeson Center for the Arts.

In her last presentation to Borough Council last Wednesday, June 4, Sandy Solomon, outgoing chair of the Borough’s Traffic and Transportation Committee, urged Council members to “take real leadership on behalf of the citizenry of Princeton” with respect to Princeton University’s expansion plans.
