Sam Lubell and Greg Goldin are architects who explore old city blueprints that never came to life. They essentially explore the idea of “what could have been” from an architectural standpoint by further developing previously undeveloped city plans. Greg Goldin was the architecture critic at Los Angeles Magazine from 2000 to 2012. He is the two-time recipient of a Getty Foundation grant in architecture, for producing Windshield Perspective, an examination of Los Angeles vernacular roadside architecture. He is co-author and co-curator of the books and exhibitions Never Built Los Angeles and Never Built New York. He is currently working on the exhibition Never Built Central Park, at the Museum of the City of New York, and Never Built Paris, at the Pavillon de l'Arsenal. He has been an adjunct professor of architecture at Syracuse University, Columbia University GSAPP, and Woodbury University. His opinion pieces appear in the Los Angeles Times, and over the last 30 years he has written for Playboy, Rolling Stone, The Nation, Architectural Digest, Interview Magazine, and The New York Times, among other publications.

He writes for The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, Architectural Digest, Wallpaper, Dwell, Wired, The Atlantic, Metropolis, Architectural Digest, Architectural Record, The Architect’s Newspaper, Architect Magazine, and other publications.
