blocktown

A multi-generational reality is imagined through a variety of elevated living spaces that sit on top of a single-level platform. Blocktown seeks to diminish the divisions typically created by lot lines through the shared community spaces existing in both the platform and residential blocks. These activities simultaneously grow with the preserved green spaces of the existing site and are used to further encourage community engagement while maintaining the typologically formal language of housing in South Bronx.
