Community Connection rethinks civic engagement, reuses wasted assets, and reconnects the Polo community with large public spaces known as community nodes. These nodes support the Polo River area by providing basic needs such as water treatment and management, housing, healthcare, material recovery, and entrepreneurship in centralized locations. A ferry and bike path system integrates the new nodes into the surrounding context and transforms the Polo River into a place for the community to reconnect. Individual trades taught by each community node secure the future of this system and pass it into the hands of the Polo community.
