The Trace: San Diego

(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2010) Thompson, Claire ; Combs, Jason ; Johnson, Louis ; Wilkinson, Luke ; King, Ben

Three overlapping systems exist within the context of the East Village site: The Geologic Setting is the most fundamental of systems San Diego sits atop the seam of two vast tectonic plates, the jagged movements of which have created the broken line of faults that lie beneath East Village. The Urban Framework was established unaware of the forces below. William Heath Davis and Alonzo Horton laid out the orthogonal grid of New Town San Diego in the latter half of the 19th century. It survives intact. Though such a grid of streets and blocks is a boon to city growth and flexible development, in some places its pattern is at odds with the geologic faults beneath it. One of these places is East Village. The Temporal Order is the ever-changing pattern of human inhabitants, their structures, and their activities, all of which fill the gridiron and make it their own. "The Market" is the expression of this pattern in the here and now. The time is ripe for human activity to re-inhabit East Village more fully, and change it once again to suite its needs. Not an obstacle, but an opportunity Yes, the geologic faults must be heeded in regards to future development. In some places streets and blocks cannot be used in the way that was originally intended. However, this does not mean a loss of utility. Instead, the trace of the faults becomes a framework upon which to build a system of open spaces. These open spaces, when designed correctly and surrounded with the proper uses, can be a catalyst to the revitalization of East Village.
Re-Envisioning the Market: San Diego

(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2010) Tolentino, Arman ; Ghizoni, Renato ; Tabor, Reggie ; Curlet, Alex ; Smith, Trent

Today’s unprecedented market conditions of simultaneous low real estate demand and low capital investment have severely altered the economic landscape. In order to redevelop San Diego’s East Village, an area with potential for great change, we must reenvision the market as an unpredictable force to which we respond with flexibility and patience. Our initial development plan targets smaller, less desirable sites to capitalize on the value of primary parcels near mass transit and the proposed East Village Park. Our prudent approach, rooted in the access to capital, will help transform the East Village into an economically, ecologically and socially vibrant place.
Articulating Everyday Space, Denver 2009

(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2009) Branum, Cassie ; Finkelstein, Aria ; Kovacheva, Maria ; King, Ben ; Lawrence, Nathan

Denver has fared better than most American cities in the recent global economic downturn. Over the past decade, Denver’s real estate market has not expanded as rapidly as in other fast-growing U.S. cities. The city enjoys a diverse industrial base, including the booming alternative energy and bioscience sectors. On the office front, Denver’s low vacancy rate has changed little in the past year while lease rates have continued to increase. 2007 marked Denver’s biggest year in tourism, adding fuel to an economy which should emerge from the global financial crisis poised for continued growth and prosperity.
Resurgent Networks: Los Angeles

(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2008) Bacon, Kevin ; Stacy, Chad ; Achey, Shauna K. ; Mosley, Erin

Sustainable development is three fold: economic, socio-cultural, and environmental. The future of Boyle Heights and its surrounding areas should adapt a holistic approach to reconnecting the community through the promotion of its public spaces with cultural development opportunities, sustainable building practices, and environmental amenities.
