Thesis Proposal Outline

4. Site Analysis

One of the site that I choose is 1649 Morse road, this used to be an old shopping mall that was demolished couple years ago.
Now, this area now considered as one of the unpleasant place to live, most that move to Columbus and live off Morse end up moving within a year.
The story of the area is that it was a mostly white suburban neighborhood when it was developed in the 50's, 60's and 70's, it used to be the one of the desirable place to live . But after that Columbus became much more of a diverse city and low rents in that area, vacant houses, and Columbus taxes caused a lot of immigrants and minorities to move there.

The past and present history are perfect for the future housing project.
