I have been considering two options for potential building programs for the South Waterfront.

One of those options in a physical rehabilitation center. The presence of OHSU seems to make this an ideal site for a program relating to health and healing. Certain aspects of the program could be open to the public, such as a gym, pool, and other spaces to facilitate activity. This could be a way to promote integration between OHSU and the community.

The other option I am considering is a community arts center. It could be a facility for classes, studios to rent, galleries, possibly performing arts and music as well. The goal of this program would be to create a stronger community connection for the residents of the housing towers. This would promote the intermingling of generations, as well as provide a draw for families into the area.
