Student Awards Jury Comments
The goal of this project is to encourage diversity in every possible
aspect of the redevelopment of the North Corktown neighborhood.
Diversity is a force that has been proven to transform neighborhoods
into strong, sustainable, and vibrant communities. Diverse communities,
by their very nature, welcome people of any race, age, or economic
status, contain integrated land uses, and possess ecologically diverse
vegetative park systems. These complex sets of factors create a
community’s unique sense of place. The suggestions for the
North Corktown redevelopment aim at achieving a high level of social,
economic, and spatial diversity. The recommendations presented will
strengthen the community now and into the future.
