Project Intent Minnie Jan
The elementary school project enriches the unique urban structure of Los Angeles and combines with it varied commercial and/or residential functions. To give back to the community, I propose a community center that can be multi-functional for both the students and the community. Some housing units are added to the program to meet the needs of LAUSD teachers. The elementary school and the community center will hopefully enrich the neighborhood, activate the street, and provide additional space through overlapping uses at different times of the day and week.

Co-Use Program
The proposal of building an elementary school on this site will relieve the overcrowding at 49th Street and Main Street Elementary Schools. The program includes classrooms, library, food-services, multi-purpose rooms, playground facilities, a community center and housing.
