The original sububurrb b of San Dieego is nowhohomeme t too aa vvaccum ooff lalandnd u usesesss. First homme to refugees of the Mexican Revvolution annd later home to a communityy of artistts, higher rents from developmeent pressurre have pushed them out leavinng the areeaundefined and deactivated. A growinng homeless population, a few sttudents annd some industrial uses occupy this north-eastern corner of East Village.

Residential growth in downtowwn outpaceed the needs of the city. An urbann communiity retail center will catalyze devellopment annd satiate the needs not only of f East Villagge, but also of Logan Heights, Golden Hill annd Downtown whose residentts currenttly frequent Liberty Station or MMission Valley for one stop shopping. High demand ffor low income housing for artistss and peopple in transitional stages of life, like studennts and the rehibilitated, is also aaddressed inPhase I with 465 low income units incluud-ing artist loft space and studennt housing. .

Families feel out of place doowntown aas most units are studios or onne bedroom apartments. Furthermore, ameenities whicch families have grown accustomeed to, such aas quality schools and open spaces, botthpublic and private, are absennt from thhecurrent product mix. Iconic arcchitecture,, avariety of unit sizes averagging 1300sf, plenty of private and public open spacce, large sidewalks with tree buffers, and a new elementry school will atttract younngfamilies to the neighborhood as a hip alternative to the suburbs.

As Downtown grows, the ooffice sectoor along C Street and Broadwayy will blennd seemlessly with residential where thhe trolly turns south towards Peetco Park. A unique work environment caapitalizes oon high performance infrastructuure researcch and development as well as pproximity ttoschools, Balboa Park and easy access ttoState Route 94 and Interstate 55. Restarants will allow for business lunchhes and foor pre-game entertainment after wwork beforre jumping on the trolly for a Paddre game.

Integration

Adaptation embodies the notion that intelligent infrastructure must be ever acclimating to support local needs. As a catalyst infusing the northern corner of East Village, Adaptation articulates an integrated high-performance infrastructure that forms the foundation of a sustained, economically viable community.

This high-performance infrastructure is an evolving, adjusting network of mini-systems. The master plan adapts its greenways to fault lines and the architecture takes advantage of solar orientation. Students from nearby educational institutions will utilize this infrastructure and ecosystem as a training ground. In essence those living and working in the East Village will simultaneously learn from, benefit from and impact continued innovation and development.
