The Community Design Assistance Center (CDAC) at Fairmont State University recently presented the City of Philippi with a design concept for a “Gateway to the Historic City.” The Architecture student presentation was the culmination of work from the spring 2013 semester.
A senior Fairmont State University Architecture student from South Korea won first place in the design competition to redevelop an historic downtown Fairmont building.
The City of Fairmont, the Urban Renewal Authority, Marion County and Fairmont State collaborated on the student competition to yield design ideas for the redevelopment of the block surrounding the Masonic Temple building in historic downtown Fairmont. The contest was funded by a FOCUS West Virginia Brownfields grant through the Northern West Virginia Brownfields Assistance Center.
