This architectural intervention is an intergenerational space that brings a community garden accessible to everyone, especially the senior population in Trumansburg. It acts as a catalyst for connection across generations.
Trumansburg has an aging population, with a median age exceeding 50. Despite this demographic trend, the town has a notably low density of nursing facilities and accessible public spaces. A case study of the existing public spaces designed for senior activities reveals a recurring lack of diversity and inclusivity.
