AllInOne: Incubating the Future
Can community centers evolve to bridge rapidly polarizing economic landscapes?
Core Problem: Repurposing vacant real estate for community revitalization poses various challenges in articulating ROI at all stages. Responsible activation in light of concerns regarding gentrification and neighborhood exploitation leads to investment and development stagnation.
Funding problem: Without clear articulation of revenue streams, community centers with a mind for social services (human and infrastructure rehabilitation, self actualization) struggle to launch and survive in a system that demands perpetual commodification and exponential profit.
