A self-sustaining community embracing the diversity of New Yorkers has won the 2020 Phil Freelon Design Competition, an annual firm-wide event that seeks to elevate Perkins and Will’s design culture. Designed by Vangel Kukov and Hala El Khorazaty, the conceptual project transforms a current industrial building site in Manhattan’s West Village, one of New York City’s most expensive neighborhoods, into a multi-generational, multi-cultural residential and civic hub that builds and strengthens community.
