The SOME Conway Center's groundbreaking project is poised to make an enduring impact, surmounting substantial challenges. As the project architect, I have taken the lead in orchestrating a transformative vision in this distinctive setting. Situated on a triangular site above the Benning Road Metro tunnels in a culturally diverse and economically promising low-income community, this design is unwavering in its dedication to inclusivity, sustainability, and community service. At its very core, the Conway Center project encompasses 202 affordable apartments, a state-of-the-art health center projected to cater to around 15,000 patients annually, and a job-training center operated by SOME, all thoughtfully accessible to the local community. The development also integrates retail spaces for small businesses, community service offices, and green areas, establishing a holistic and vibrant living environment.

Strategically positioned across from the Benning Road metro station, it ensures residents and patients enjoy seamless access to employment, services, and healthcare, fostering connectivity and convenience. The Conway Center's resolute commitment to addressing multifaceted community needs, championing sustainability, and nurturing inclusivity within the complexities of an urban environment exemplifies our dedication to forward-thinking, holistic development. In my role as the project architect, I've played a pivotal part in shaping a design that not only transcends obstacles but also paves the way for a more inclusive and sustainable future.
