crime framework: designing for crime prevention
Abstract
Crime changes the social perception of the first time visitor and returning user and their ability to adapt in a changing environment while establishing their role in a community that is currently influenced by inclusionary housing, university prestige and quality of life. The first time visitor and returning user deserve a sense of ownership in a community that is currently influenced by low income housing and pristine universities in Alphabet City. An urban rooftop greenway and elevated park systems will bring sustainability to the neighborhood while giving the community a place to celebrate minimal crime numbers in the area.
