Architecteam worked with the Utica Municipal Housing Authority to develop conceptual site plans to reimagine the Housing Authorities’ public housing portfolio. The vision was to recreate the various developments with an improved focus on creating internal neighborhoods that are indistinguishable from those in market-rate housing. Pedestrian-friendly circulation and distribution of green space throughout were also designed into these concepts.
Planning continues regarding this transformative redevelopment.
