the strait gate.”
Break New Ground
in Old Ways
Walkable places, shared civic life,
and a different pattern of growth.
We Need a New
Neighborhood Model
A different vision
for the Lowcountry.
I’On: May 1995
Inside the room where
a neighborhood began.
Sequence as Canon
Constitutional limits and
the powers left ungranted.
Cities are a conversation
across generations.
From the commonplace book
View allThings worth building.
Things worth preserving.
In conversation.
The places behind the ideas.
An archive for the long view.
Writings, conversations, original documents, and places. Follow an idea, return to a source, or simply wander.
A journal of places, ideas
and the pursuit of beauty.
Narrow Gate brings together the work and interests of Vince Graham: a developer, civic artist, and independent thinker whose projects range from traditional neighborhoods to historic restoration.
This is a place for the long view. For essays and conversations, drawings and documents, unexpected connections, and the details that make a place worth caring about.
Beauty is the thread. The invitation is to look more closely—and to imagine what might yet be.
