A block in Bed-Stuy is currently home to a large plumbing supply company - and its storage yard. This opportunity combines the existing plumbing supply company - with a plumbing vocational school. It addresses the growing already existing on the block - and enables it for its residents as well. Storm water captured by the warehouse can be collected and distributed.
It aims to expand on the conversion of empty lots into green spaces - where the local production of vegetables can feed the residents nearby, and demonstrate the increasing need to add accessible leisure spaces.
The Bed-Stuy Water Shed is an opportunity to reimagine an underutilized, inaccessible space and enable a service that is accessible to the residents of the block it sits within.
