The Journey The Journey is the climax of the site. Its genesis materializes through the extended ramp, that emerges from the belt-line, or the lateral passages that emerges from the landscape. “The Journey� is the place that evokes the remembrance of the agony, unwaivering, and the transformational life of African Americans and their culture. Tectonically the structure is formed through the array of structural elements that penetrates into the appealing interior spaces. These harsh structural elements are intended to be representational of the poetry of something harsh holding something beautiful and expressive.

“The familiar African proverb that says “It takes a whole village to raise a child” emphasizes the importance of community. Leimert Park Village is a community considered by many to be the center of the African American arts scene in Los Angeles and logistically takes on the character of a heart for its community.
RENDERED BY LAUREN WELLS
AFRICAN SYMBOLS USED AS DESIGN INSPIRATION
When considering the cultural asset the park has been for its community, we decided to further extend this cultural language. To accomplish this, we propose making the Village more pedestrian friendly by completely closing off vehicular access to W 43rd Place and blocking through traffic at the corner of W 43rd St and Degnan Ave. This treatment will alter the experience of the Village as the newly designed Sankofa passage is traversed. The passage serves as a connecting device between the historic park and its extension on the site. Giving much of the grade back to the Village as a landscaped park providing the community with another venue for expression that is both familiar and new. The newly realized park extension occupies the majority of the grade while the community center is submerged beneath the earth where life originates and returns. This serves as a reflection of the deeply rooted culture of Leimert Park Village.” The community experiences the park at various levels; the amphitheater, the sloped green roof, and the Leimert Village Cultural Center basement.

“Journey Through a Living Memorial� Urban culture was made possible by the agriculture revolition which provided the means of sustaining risinbg populations. The application of idustrial modes of production to agriculture made it possible to mass produce food but this approach also had detrimental effets on our wnvironment and on society at large. Just as mono-cropping and pesticide run off have their ecological consequences, the seperation of working and living frm the land has had social costc measured in the numbbers of disenfranchised and homeless. This project proposes the exploration of urban farming as a more socially sustainable prcatice by reinserting food production at a local scale. As an economic system it can utilize an untapped workforce and bolster local economies. As an architecture it can bring new life to blighted communities and new livelihoods to the people they serve.
