Team Code: 2022-4796
Schools: University of Cincinnati
Overview (Narrative Excerpt from Original Project Submission):
Perfectly stitching together the City of Oakland’s unique urban fabric, The Stitch is a mixed income, mixed use community seeking to build connections servicing the Greater Oakland Area through establishing the Old Oakland neighborhood as a key node in the city’s transportation infrastructure and cultural fabric Through building a transit hub that connects the community to the surrounding region, maintaining critical elements of Oakland’s diverse history and integrating them into the built environment, and creating green community spaces that facilitate human and ecological connections, the proposed development will culminate in a living experience that benefits workers, residents, and visitors as they seek to enjoy Oakland.
Jury Comments: The jury praised the thoughtful creation of a public realm and amenities in the space under the freeway, which transformed it into a space that people would want to visit.
