This session will illustrate how community-driven programs can be good candidates for rehabilitation projects while providing a positive impact on a neighborhood level. Through a series of case studies, participants will learn how to analyze an existing building to recognize potential uses, with a focus on the flexibility of arts, culture, and community spaces. Attendees will develop an understanding of how such projects create a positive impact both on the immediate building as well as the neighborhood through sensitive rehabilitation and spurring surrounding development. Approved for 1.00 AIA HSW credit, sponsored by Schooley Caldwell.
