Description

A study of two community-based projects by passion-driven non-profit organizations as developers in Detroit. The LOVE Building is an experiment in community-rooted development where they work toward cultivating liberation, justice, and joy, for all Detroiters. Oakland-based Designing Justice + Designing Spaces acquiring eight parcels at the intersection of Grand River & 14th Street in Detroit, plans to create a campus as an extension of the LOVE Building development. The expanded campus complex of both will feature a universal design, and community engagement, and hopes to address mass incarceration with its development. Work on the 14 and Grand project includes testing ideas with the local community, to create pop-up activations that inform the permanent infrastructure.
