Freedom By Design Shines Again

Members of the School of Architecture student organization have designed an amazing project named “Into the Fold.” The groundbreaking for the ADA-compliant ramp at the Westminster church on the North Side of Syracuse took place last fall and the project will continue this spring.

“For some of us, it was the first time doing a real build, so we had to account for mistakes,” says Ruo Piao Chen ’17, director of Freedom by Design and one of a number of Honors students involved in the project. “For example we rented a two-man auger to dig the holes one time on site. The foundation is really rocky, and we ended up actually having to dig the holes ourselves.”
