A community workshop to present to residents a potential future of Waterloo North Public Housing Estate. This will be an opportunity to provide feedback and input into the study.
We are undertaking a project called Retain Repair Reinvest (RRR). RRR is a community-informed feasibility study that assesses the viability of refurbishment as an alternative approach to estate renewal.
The aims of Retain Repair Reinvest are:
- Retain existing communities by not relocating residents,
- Repair existing buildings to reduce carbon emissions,
- Reinvest savings to improve comfort and upgrade public housing.
OFFICE will conduct a feasibility study and design proposal - including environmental analysis, full costings, and architectural scheme.
The RRR project has been running for three years and in this time three feasibility and design proposals have been completed. Each feasibility study has involved extensive community engagement with public housing residents to inform the direction of each project. We are eager to work closely with residents on this study and hear what they want for the future of Waterloo North.
OFFICE is a not for profit architecture and design firm, as a registered charity, OFFICE’s operations, processes and outputs are bound by a constitution to make projects for the public good.
