Reflection
Bridge 3 helped me understand and how challenging is to design a plaza, near the train station, and still make it available for everyone, safe, and familiar. It helped me realize how the culture of the residents at Jackson Heights is not celebrated or acknowledge, even though traditions, folklore, and cultural events are very popular amongst their countries. As a possible solution, I want to emphasize the diversity of language Jackson Heights carries amongst their people and emphasize it on a space, where they can share, talk, eat, and remember their identity, something that is lost with the transit noise and their fast-paced life.
