Boston's tumultuous journey of transformation has unfurled the tapestry of its storied past, inspiring urban planning with a retrospective vision that embraces both climate-induced landscapes and strategic redesign.

Regrettably, revitalisation efforts in Boston’s Roxbury neighbourhood have historically disproportionately favoured the northern district. Such undertakings displaced a treasured working-class community, only to find replacement public housing that failed to cater to their essential needs and financial constraints, fuelling deep-seated resentment.

Considering the unique socio-economic dynamics of Boston and Roxbury, this project aims to improve quality of life in this underdeveloped neighbourhood. Aligned with the standards set in affluent areas i.e. Back Bay, it endeavours to renovate existing housing and establish a new community hub.

By strategically centralising communal spaces such as kitchens and dining areas, the project acknowledges the importance of community engagement as well as the potential for shared spaces to serve as catalysts for connection and collaboration, ultimately strengthening the social fabric of the neighbourhood.
