Abstract
This architectural design studio focused on the Lloyd District, located in inner Northeast Portland and less than a mile from the University of Oregon’s White Stag campus. The Lloyd District is a low-density area defined by a large shopping mall constructed in the 1960s. Adjacent to the mall is Holladay Park, a superblock green space that has earned the reputation as a vacant and unsafe area. Commercial buildings, office towers, and parking lots largely define the remainder of the district. As the vibrancy of the Lloyd Center mall declined in recent years, the district’s future became a question mark for the City of Portland and landowners.
