| Charrette
Workshop Winds Down |
 |
The Harvester Neighborhood
Community Workshop has wound to a close. Ball State
students worked into the early afternoon finalizing their
ideas and coloring dozens of sketches. The charrette
was a success and wraps up five months of work. Over
60 residents stopped by the charrette to view the progress
and positive media attention was focused on the
neighborhood. A final presentation of the
charrette findings will be made in the months to come, but
a date has not been set. Check back often for
updates. |
Team Begins
Second Day of Workshop |
| After an early breakfast, Ball State
students began where they left off Friday night...working
hard on sketches and plans. A brief meeting informed
each student about what the other was concentrating
on. Others began scanning drawings into the
computer. A few neighborhood residents even ventured
out to check on the progress. |

Neighborhood
Spends Evening with Students! |
 |
More than 50 neighborhood residents spent
Friday evening with BSU students. A spaghetti dinner
served as a discussion forum between residents and
students and continued late into the evening. After
the dinner, residents viewed the many drawings and maps
developed during the afternoon. The team plans on
working late into the night and will return early tomorrow
morning. |
Community Charrette Workshop is
Underway!
|
| About 15 Ball State University
students arrived early this morning at the Harvester
Avenue Missionary Church. Today and tomorrow they,
along with two Professors and countless community
residents, will dream about the future of the Harvester
Neighborhood.
The students are volunteering in the Community Based
Projects program of the College of Architecture and
Planning at Ball State University. CBP has served
countless Indiana communities since the inception of the
program in 1969. CBP offers real-world experience to
the College's students of architecture, landscape
architecture, urban planning, and historic preservation.
Stay tuned for live updates from the site. If
you're in the neighborhood, feel free to stop by and visit
with the team! |
