Located in Detroit, MI, Northwest Goldberg is a neighbourhood suffering from an abundance of blight and abandonment. The project imagines how the NW Goldberg community can be redeveloped to create a vibrant, walkable, and inclusive urban environment. A combination of mixed-income residential and commercial programming populates the perimeter of the public spaces. The public spaces seek to promote placemaking, health, and well-being for users. A large lake activates the neighbourhood and invites users to gather, reflect, and unwind. NW Goldberg Refresh attempts to create a mixed-use publicCOOK center that reinforces the | 23 connections to the surrounding neighbourhood and invites users to repopulate the area.
