Multi-Story | Multi-Purpose Design Studio | 2020 | Clinton Concourse

This project tasked students in Multi-Story | Multi-Purpose Design senior studio to program and develop proposals for theoretical use and renovation of a two-story, international style building located at 9-17 North Clinton in the Midtown District of the City of Rochester. This building, which has been vacant for decades and fallen into severe disrepair, is ripe for rejuvenation and rehabilitation.

Clinton Concourse Design Concept:
Concourse, the action of coming together or meeting. The Midtown District's newest development will create a community celebrating local retailers, wellness, and food. Creating a sense of home for current and new residents of the Midtown District. Located at 9-17 N Clinton in Rochester, NY, Clinton Concourse is a multi-use development that celebrates the rich cultural history and legacy of Rochester's Midtown community. Inspired to revitalize the districts retail history and introducing vibrant living, Clinton Concourse will feature a high-spirited atmosphere that visually balances and creates a flexible and dynamic flow through the layout of the spaces. The residential spaces would follow all walks of life; encouraging all different economic levels and creating a sense of shared purpose.

Students were mentored through this project by Mauro Cringoli | FORTIFIED, the project architect for this property owned by Dutton & Company and Professor Heidi Schlegel.
