Working Title of The Project (which we will use to refer to it throughout the series)

D4CR Warren

Project Location

City of Warren, Minnesota, US

Nature of The Project (e.g. building, new community, economic development, etc.)

A community design project/process aimed at revealing community needs and values in ordert to identify and implement regenerative, sustainable interventions within underutilized land use areas. The process includes asset mapping, backcasting, geodesign, and a regenerative scorecard. The four currently identified prototypes (design interventions) in the pipeline (unconstructed) are an interactive map, energy independence plan, safe routes tree trail path, and core area improvements.

Why do you think this project is appropriate for the course assignment?

It seeks to reveal regenerative interventions with community input. I'm curious how methods used differ from those we are learning about in class.
