For this episode, we have broken down the subject of stealing into three distinct topics: Original Stealing, Masked Stealing, and Contemporary Stealing. The first topic Original Stealing will be based upon the original settlement of North America and the impacts of the Doctrine of Discovery. The second topic Masked Stealing is based upon issues regarding eminent domain within the Chavez Ravine. In our third topic, Contemporary Stealing we will discuss more modern issues of gentrification based around the impacts of the High Line in New York City. Finally, we will relate how each method of stealing has influenced the development of what we have defined as Landscape Architecture's Original Sin.
