Issues in Architecture — Student project presentations open to community feedback

On April 12 from 10:30 a.m.–noon, 24 students from Arch 542: Issues in Architecture will unveil and present the progress of their class projects, which center around meeting needs for the community of east Pasco. The presentations are open to the public and can be viewed over Zoom.

The class, led by professors Phil Gruen of WSU Pullman and Robert Franklin of WSU Tri-Cities, focuses on infrastructure and racism in east Pasco, Kennewick, and Richland.

Stemming from a partnership with the Manhattan Project National Historical Park and National Park Service, the students are required to produce interpretive materials around the history of east Pasco — essays, a digital walking tour, a story map, and other design project proposals intended to recognize the history of the area. While these projects are in progress, the students seek feedback from the public to ensure their designs meet community needs.
