Aims to transform existing civilization facilities in Southampton into thought-provoking spaces that inspire contemplation about the future of the Shinnecock Nation. The project begins by revitalizing the Shinnecock Canal Lock, a vital gateway to the Shinnecock land and connected to the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR). The objective is to incorporate Shinne-cock cultural elements into the bridge, enhancing the tribe's cultural influence and promoting forward-thinking. By strategically selecting this location, the project redirects attention and energy to the Shinnecock community, facilitating the reclamation of their cultural impact and ancestral land. Through innovative design interventions, the revitalized space encourages dialogue, reflection, and the exploration of new possibilities for the Shinnecock Nation. Engaging the public in thought-provoking experiences, the project raises collective awareness of the Shinnecock people's cultural, social, and environmental aspirations. Ultimately, the vision is for architecture to act as a catalyst for societal transformation, fostering cultural pride, resilience, and the reclamation of ancestral lands for indigenous communities.
