Abstract:
This thesis examines how an always-evolving urban public realm can continue to honour its past history and peoples while simultaneously creating a more vital and vibrant environment. Whereas increasing the vibrancy of a neighborhood is generally coupled to the erasure of authentic history via gentrification, must that always be the case? This thesis posits that by decanting key programmatic requirements of conventional housing to new urban infrastructure, a neighborhood’s existing character and affordability can be maintained together.
