Overview (Narrative Excerpt from Original Project Submission):

Scion is a dynamic community connecting Old Oakland to Jack London, Chinatown, and the entire Bay Area. The project seeks to transform a mono-functional area adjacent to a highway that severs the older part of town from the waterfront, into an attractive destination, creating a mixed use destination emblematic of the city’s progressive values and diversity, while taking advantage and character of the adjacent neighborhoods.

Jury Comments: The jury appreciated the proposal’s outstanding connectivity within the site and to the neighborhoods beyond.
