SU CAMPUS

WESTCOTT AREA

EXISTING CONDITIONSThe existing space is located in the Westcott neighborhood, near to the Syracuse University campus. The design program was interested in using the space as a gallery and looking for design suggestions.

PROPOSED DESIGNThe new design uses technology to connect the site to the main intersection in the Westcott Neighborhood. The wall the wraps around the exterior also screens the existing materials, rather than demolishing and rebuilding.
