Week 8: Characteristics
By week eight I was ready to start developing those characteristics into a more coherent system.
I set them starting with the district area and finishing with the street. The street in this
investigation was the turning point in the neighborhood sections. It was the area in which the
elements started repeating and the relationship presented similar issues with the next block.
This process continued during the last week of investigation creating a group of identifiable
elements that constitutes the intergenerational neighborhood. This together with the
characteristics of accessible spaces formed the perfect environment for the elders to participate
on the life in community.
