Opening the Edge: Phase III
Opening the Edge: Phase III
Residents of the Lillian Wald Houses and community members on the Lower East Side have been working towards taking down the fence and building a vibrant public space in their NYCHA development. In Phase I and II, we led a participatory design process to envision the future public space and fundraised to make it happen.

Phase II: Activities & Outputs
Phase II: Activities & Outputs
Residents of the Lillian Wald Houses and community members on the Lower East Side had a vision for a vibrant public space. Benches to relax and catch up with neighbors, a stage for performances, a stepped mound for recreational activities, and new lighting. This was the work of our dedicated Community Design Team completed in the first phase of our Opening the Edge project.
