St. Pleasant
This studio focused on a very blighted and under-utilized street connecting two major areas of activity (Findlay Market & Washington Park) just outside of downtown Cincinnati. The street is primarily residential in nature and is hometo vacant land, buildings, and low-income housing, however contains a strong sense of community which has been established by its current residents. Because of this, we set out to promote a high level of affordable housing, to maintain the community that currently exists and to promote and enhance it. Through the process of urban infill development my team set out to make Pleasant St. a public space for its residents to continue to hold onto that strong sense of community that had already been established, while also creating a highly walkable and pedestrian-friendly connection between Findlay Market and Washington Park.
