Philip Poon is an architect, artist, and writer whose work engages the complex dynamics of a changing Manhattan Chinatown and the relationship of Asian-American identity within it.

Informed by his background as a Chinese-American from New York City, his work as a registered architect, and his engagement with art and activist movements in Chinatown, his projects materialize and exhibit issues at the intersection of space, race, and class.

He is the founder of Firm A, an architecture office in New York City.

He currently is hosting a series of Chinatown walking tours in April and May 2024.  More information and registration can be found here: Dimes Square Tours
