Out With Tents: UW Architecture Students Tackle Ballard Homeless Site

Ross Reynolds interviews Dr. Sharon Sutton who is acting as a mentor for architecture students at the University of Washington as they put together a workshop to design the Ballard homeless camp on Market Street.

Students will meet with people who will live in the camp, neighbors, and other interest parties to figure out how it should look. Sutton says if the Market Street site is going to work for 52 homes, they will have to be more than one story tall, so tents are out.
