    An urban community node - "Not Just a Bus Stop"
  • This was a four week charrette project at the USC School of Architecture. The proposal was titled "Urban Node; Not Just a Bus Stop" and called for a new bus stop on Wilshire Blvd., and a connection with the local Neighborhood Council.  
    My project took the neighborhood council portion and expanded to use the project site completely and give the community a meeting/assembly center, a day/after-school facility, and a neighborhood council office.
