Award Winners Swan’s Marketplace (Oakland, CA) designed by Pyatok Architects, Inc. (Oakland, CA) in association with Y.H. Lee Associates, Inc. This imaginatively designed complex in Oakland, California, is emblematic of what increasingly will occur in decades to come: recycling rather than demolishing obsolete commercial and industrial urban buildings, with affordable housing – in this case 20 market rate co-housing units and 18 affordable rental units – part of the new mixed-use menu. The festive design of “Swan’s Marketplace” exposes and celebrates the industrial, steel-framed carcass of the original market, visually unifying the complex. Occupying an entire block, “Swan’s Marketplace” encompasses not only housing, but also a food store, shops, a restaurant and café, a children’s art museum, art galleries, private offices, a parking garage and several courtyards.
