UK College of Design Proposals to Revitalize Shippingport, Louisville
21c Museum presents an exhibition of proposals by the University of Kentucky College
of Design for future projects and development for the Shippingport area of Louisville.
The College of Design focused on this area of west Louisville because it presents
a potential for economic expansion. These proposals range from vocational schools,
a culinary school with adjoining restaurant, a centralized hospitality complex serviced
by light rail, networks of pocket parks that connect to the existing Olmstead Park
system, to a Green Ford Motor Company campus where hybrid and electric products
would be designed, developed, and constructed.
For the dates of May 25 – June 8, a large model will be displayed in the Atrium
Gallery along with video presentations of the proposal studies. On May 27th at 5pm,
a reception will be held in
Atrium Gallery with the graduate students and distinguished guests.
