GARNISH: The Brewery District

Now that we’ve determine what to bring to the residential parts of Crossroads, we took a look at nearby areas that can further enhance the community recipe. Like any great meal, the garnish completes the experience -- and we saw the presence of local craft breweries as the garnish to the Crossroads recipe. In our proposal, these breweries can be used to build a stronger community connection, and provide more social spaces -- bringing people together over food and drink.

Some of the industrial area surrounding the breweries can be redeveloped and re-purposed into new residences, amenities, and public spaces. The unused green spaces surrounding the breweries can also be enhanced and connected to bring life into an otherwise grey and dull industrial area.
