2021 ULI Hines Student Competition Honorable Mention: "The Weave" – University of California Berkeley
February 23, 2021
Entry Title: The Weave
Team Code: 2021-2607
School: University of California Berkeley
Rooted in the rich legacy of Kansas City arts and culture, The Weave entwines social equity into urban expression. By sewing together critical resilience, restorative justice and equitable access articulates the African American leadership in the East Village and Paseo West neighborhoods. The east-west connection above I-70 joins the Government Center and Troost Avenue, breaking the historic barrier.
Jury Comments: The jury praised the team’s focus on equity and vision of Black cultural and economic empowerment. They also recognized that the design extended into the Paseo West neighborhood.
