Abstract
Current trends in cities across the nation are showing that the importance of a city's central business district is being rediscovered. This project seeks to take the first step in revitalizing the central business district of Garland, Texas. The idea behind this revitalization will be to take a vacant structure and adapt that structure to house a new function, while innovatively integrating new structures with the existing. The project will seek to maintain the integrity of the existing structure and its relationship to the surrounding context of downtown Garland
