This creative project will examine Foote Homes and Cleaborne Homes, two public housing projects adjacent to each other located in downtown Memphis, Tennessee. The downtown area of Memphis has quickly grown into a vibrant urban city with high end residential, business, and commercial developments over the past several years. The city has been transforming itself by re-vitalizing many of the older neighborhoods with it. In fact, both of these housing projects have been scheduled for demolition for many years; however, neither has yet to be improved. The city depends upon people of different incomes to function, yet does little to provide adequate housing for all income levels. Today, the question is, how can these areas be re-developed as beneficial assets to the city of Memphis rather than continue to be financially draining and social separators of the city? To begin the project, the city of Memphis and the relationship of Foote and Cleaborne Homes in the city will be examined. Next, the change of public housing's role in the United States since World War II will be discussed. Then, design theories and case studies of other re-developed housing projects will be studied to see how they have changed how publicly assisted housing is developed today. Lastly, a set of design guidelines and a new design of Foote Homes and Cleaborne Homes will be developed to create a vibrant mixed-use and mixed-income community out of these old public housing projects. Re-developing these housing projects will better fit the current residents, growing housing demand, and overall image of the city of Memphis. / Department of Landscape Architecture

Like many other cities Memphis has been hit hard by the economic downturn, but unlike other cities there are several other factors which cause the existing conditions in Memphis to be even more devastating. Memphis is one of the largest majority minority cities in the country with high rates of unemployment and, extremely high rates of crime. Foreclosures have ravaged the housing stock, graduation rates are far below the state goal, there are huge disparities in income and HIV/AIDS is on the rise at alarming rates. In Memphis, these factors combine to exacerbate the existing desert of opportunity that reproduces patterns of desolation, segregation, and social and economic disparities. This report aims to investigate the socio-economic dynamics of those areas most affected by inequality in an effort to understand the correlation between various factors, identify trends within those areas and assess how the interaction of various components could have potentially detrimental effects on the overall community. / text
