Alturas de Manoguayabo

In 2008, the CUCD led a 7 day charrette, under the leadership of professors Gustavo Sanchez-Hugalde, Rafael Fornes and Sonia Chao to develop a masterplan for an infill site located in the small town of Manoguayabo in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. The masterplan stitches two differing scales and types of neighborhoods by which the site is bound, making vehicular and pedestrian connections while providing for a seamless transition between the two sides. The Pedro Martinez Foundation has for several years donated schools and housing to the community. This larger scaled projectfor the Foundation covers an area of 6 hectares and would incorporate several civic buildings, including a secondary school, library, sports academy, stadium with market, cultural center, community church and clinic as well as different types of public spaces and housing types from more affordable to middle income options. The design also allows for possible future extensions of the project to its south. This pilot project of a sustainable town development is being analyzed by the federal government of the Dominican Republic as a possible model for the rebuilding of towns affected by recent hurricanes in 20 locations around the island.
