also spaces
feature that
provide a connection with each pair of floors. Passive design strategies were an important part of the design; Double skins on the east and west facades, and light shelves on the south, control light and heat infiltration.

CANFIELD COMMUNITY RESILIENCE HUB 4405-4011 CADILLAC BOULEVARD, DETROIT, MI 4TH YEAR PUBLIC INTEREST DESIGN STUDIO 16
The
Canfield
Community
Resilience Hub is a mixed-use resource center for the Canfield corridor
of
the
Goodstock
neighborhood in Detroit. The residential context and existing aesthetic
of
the
Goodstock
neighborhood was key in the design. This was made easier by the reuse of two existing abandoned homes. Using community input, food insecurity was found to be a key issue the neighborhood wanted to tackle, so a market and cafe are
the
central
commercial
programs of the building. There are
also
public
and
private
meeting rooms that can act as social and educational spaces. These educational spaces are useful for adults who may not have access to technology at home, as well as schoolchildren from the adjacent Detroit Lions Academy and nearby Barack Obama Leadership Academy.

Development facility
in
is
the
a
spaces
mixed-use
Boston
neighborhood featuring

commercial
24
residential
units above. It was designed in relation to the Cathedral of the Most Blessed Sacrament, located across Woodward Ave, in conjunction with feedback from residents of the area. It functions
as

point for residents of the area, with large spaces for residents to use for group activities. Three structures function
as
smaller
communities within the larger project, with two connected via bridges on the residential floors. Each unit has access to a balcony, and each building invites users to participate in the central courtyard. The courtyard of the Woodward Development directs the eye across to the landmark Cathedral, and the street crossings were redesigned to be more pedestrian-friendly.
