BENSON COMMUNITY MARKET

YEAR FOUR: 2022

LOCATION: BENSON, NE

TYPE: COMMUNITY MARKET

INSTRUCTORS: RYAN HEIR & ASHLEY BYARS

Benson, NE has a historic neighborhood market, and was officially named to the National Register of Historic Places in 2020. The city is currently generating more plans and projects to preserve, reuse, and revitalize the city. This market hall based at the intersection of N 59th Street and Maple Street, was previously home to an abandoned gas station that greeted visitors on their way into the business district. This project seeks to change this corner into a Benson landmark for the community, specifically by drawing on concepts of walkability, flexibility, and safety. Through indooroutdoor transition spaces, pop-up or permanent markets can have conditions that suit their varying needs.

LINCOLN MAKERS’ COMMUNITY

YEAR SIX: 2023

LOCATION: LINCOLN, NE

TYPE: RESIDENTIAL / PLANNING

INSTRUCTORS: EMILY ANDERSON + GEOFF DEOLD

Located in the South Haymarket in Lincoln, NE, the Lincoln Makers’ Community seeks to bridge the gap between industrial and residential zoning in this portion of Lincoln. By condensing essential living ammenities like food/water, sleep, and hygene into smaller interior footprints, tenants of this community can have the room to pursue their creative needs with ample space. Organizations and blocking of units allows for the social interaction and collaboration that some makers want, but don’t otherwise have.

A large community marketplace resides on the North side of the property to allow spaces for the selling and displaying of work created in the local area and on site.

Trail path weaving throughout the community towards the community market space.

What does the maker need?

The maker has a desire for tools and resources to complete their work, but also a desire for enough space to hold such tools and activities.

ASCENT OWH RENOVATION

YEAR FIVE: 2023

LOCATION: OMAHA, NE

TYPE: ADAPTIVE REUSE INSTRUCTOR: JEREMY REDING

After the Covid-19 pandemic, the workplace has shifted away from “inperson” only in place of a home/office hybrid. As this becomes more common, there is a growing abundance of vacant office space. In this adaptive reuse project, our goal was to transform the current Omaha World Herald building in downtown Omaha from the bleak, low quality office environment into an invigorated, mixed use destination on the outskirts of the new Gene Leahy Mall. Through dynamic changes in the buildings floor plates and installment of physical activity hotspots, our team transformed the OWH building into the newest, most active destinations in downtown Omaha. Named after the dynamic ramps and floorplates, but also the emphasis on physical activity, this is ASCENT.

RENEWED Truman Sports Copmlex

YEAR SIX: 2024

LOCATION: KANSAS CITY, MO

TYPE: MASTERPLANNING, SITE OVERVIEW

INSTRUCTOR: POPULOUS

Truman Sports Complex, home to both the Kansas City Chiefs and Kansas City Royals, has fallen behind in the realm of sports entertainment. Competition is fierce to see which teams make the most income and hold the attention of spectators the longest. In this rennovation project, Truman Sports Complex is changed from a stadium in a sea of parking, into a brand new multi-use entertainment district. By reusing the change in groundplane left by a moving Kansas City Royals team, the area becomes a tiered plane of entertainment for restaurants, entertainment, and apartments. Additionally, a new covered outdoor “Fan Zone” allows for Chiefs fans to celebrate and get more involved outside the stadium. Defined by axis, the site pushes fans towards the stadium while keeping parking for dedicated tailgate fans.
