STUDENT: Jinah Nicole Oh BLOCK PARTY is a vertically oriented housing development that seeks to harness the eccentric social energy of the Philadelphia Row house block. BLOCK PARTY reimagines the traditional elements of sidewalk, stoop, house, and yard within the context of a mid-rise housing block that behaves with some of the social intimacy and connection familiar to the Philadelphia urban fabric. A dynamic, centralized public space exists as the integrating core of the vertical block party, truly offering new perspectives.
