Re-Grow

Rooted in Red Hook's industrial and agricultural histories, the project reimagines the Fresh Food Market as a civic infrastructure to spark community growth. Two greenhouses, one to produce and one to educate, act as spatial anchors, and visual cues, blending public programs while connecting the process of growing, preparing, and sharing food.

Community challenges faces local crime and safety issues, and lack of well maintained and/or public space. Design include zones of public space, of different uses and programs as an extension of the exisitng park. A learning greenhouse provides educational opportunities. Interchangable advertising on facade provides news, murals, and production goods to locals.

Terraced platforms extend the waterfront park into the market while mitigate flooding. It negotiates the
transition between the urban fabric and open waterfront edge through overlapping spaces of commerce, learning, gathering, and recreation.
