ANTI-DISPLACEMENT PLANNING AND DESIGN STRATEGIES ALONG THE ARTERY

For this third and final studio exercise, students and D7 Advisory Council members co-created ideas for anti-displacement design and planning strategies along the ARTery, focusing on local businesses, public art, vacant lots, repurposing churches, and improving walkability/street safety. They tried to identify opportunities for public investments and improvements that contribute to racial equity, public health, environmental justice, and community stability.
