15 Minute City, Gateway Mall Redevelopment

LARCH 411, ARCH 511/611 

Pondering the pursuit of a more sustainable urban future, this sustainable urbanism studio builds on last semester’s 15 Minute City/Gateway Mall redevelopment effort. Landscape architecture students developed designs for portions of the open space and architecture students developed designs for selected buildings. This review will focus on the design and performance of these designs. The design research proposal was “Can we achieve the performance and design intentions of the 15 Minute City urban design plan at the site and architectural scale?”
