1.0 PROJECT INFORMATION
1.1 About the Eskew+Dumez+Ripple MLK Day of Service
As part of Eskew+Dumez+Ripple’s commitment to building
community the fi rm developed a skills-based service program to
benefi t community organizations in the New Orleans region. This
program seeks to support leaders within our practice and community
in impacting social problems through design excellence. Each year
the program makes the entire Eskew+Dumez+Ripple staff available
for one work day to community focused initiatives. Through this
design-marathon stakeholders participate in a collaborative design
process tailored to their particular design challenge. This exchange
of knowledge benefits Eskew+Dumez+Ripple in constructing
a deeper understanding of community needs and benefi ts the
partner organization in further realizing their mission through
design excellence.
1.2 About Youth Rebuilding New Orleans
Youth Rebuilding New Orleans is a one of a kind among non-
profi t volunteer organizations. New Orleans youth created us,
we’re organized by youth, and our efforts are directed at bettering
the lives of our city’s youth. Many young people who wanted to
volunteer to help rebuild New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina
were turned away by other non-profi ts because of the liability
associated with reconstruction work. Instead of accepting this
rejection, a committed group of teenagers decided they would
fi nd a way to help the New Orleans community recover.
We know that when it comes to volunteer organizations, New
Orleans is not lacking, but our devotion to young people and
education sets us apart. Although we have grown exponentially
from the initial days following Hurricane Katrina, our vision and
founding principles have remained the same. Our mission is to
reduce blight by rebuilding distressed and foreclosed homes while
engaging local youth in the recovery and rebirth of the New
Orleans area.
1.3 About the Project
Youth Rebuilding New Orleans and Eskew+Dumez+Ripple
teamed up on Martin Luther King Jr. Day 2015 to re-imagine a
neighborhood block in Bayou St. John. The team collaborated
to inform the redevelopment of fi ve blighted properties on the
corner of St. Ann Street and N. White Street to contribute to
the recovery and resilience of the community. Three of the fi ve
properties contain structures in various states of extreme disrepair
and the remaining two are currently vacant. After researching
and engaging with neighbors and YRNO staff and volunteers, the
team developed multiple options for each property that may serve
the needs of the organization and community.
All documents produced in this package are for visioning purposes
only and are not intended for construction.

2.5 Zoning Research
1896 Sanborn Map 1909 Sanborn Map 1940 Sanborn Map
The City of New Orleans is currently undergoing modifi cations
to the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance (CZO). Projects are
continuing to be reviewed under the current ordinance and
permitted projects under construction will not need to conform
with the new zoning. At this time, there is not a known date for
when the draft zoning ordinance will be in effect.
Current zoning requirements
Under the current zoning, the YRNO properties are located in the
RD-3: Two Family Residential District. In addition to single and
two-family dwellings, permitted uses in this area include public
parks, parkways and playgrounds, and private gardens.
The current bulk and height restrictions are as follows:
Maximum Height:
Minimum depth of front yard:
Minimum total width of side yards:
Minimum width of each side yard:
Minimum depth of rear yard:
Minimum lot width x minimum lot

New Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance
The most recent draft zoning ordinance names this area HU-RD2:
Historic Urban Two-Family Residential District. Permitted
uses in the draft zoning include single and two-family dwellings,
parks and playgrounds, and agriculture. Conditional uses include
community and cultural centers, and neighborhood commercial
establishments. The establishment can be an art gallery and
studio, day care center, offi ce, restaurant, personal services, or
retail. This establishment is subject to some restrictions in order to
keep it small and pedestrian-focused. For example, the gross fl oor
area for the establishment is limited to 3,000 square feet and the
hours of operation are limited to 6 am through 10 pm.
The draft CZO bulk and height restrictions are as follows:

The team’s engagement approach included a survey of the
neighborhood and development of personas. This enabled the
team to understand the desires and needs of those living in the
neighborhood under the project’s reduced time line.
3.1 Neighborhood Survey
YRNO volunteers administered a door to door survey of neighbors
within 3 blocks of the properties over the course of one week
leading up to the Day of Service. The survey asked specific
questions about what neighbors would like to see developed on
the vacant lots and rebuilt on the blighted properties. The survey
also collected general demographic data about respondents.
The survey revealed a strong desire for more single family or
two-family homes in the neighborhood and open play space for
children. Of those who responded to the survey most had lived in
the neighborhood for less than 5 years, though half rented and
half owned their home. Over half of the respondents said they
went to the park often and one quarter had members of their
household who were under 18.

3.2 Personas
A persona is a character description of a fi ctitious person based
on data about different stakeholder groups. Personas are useful
in helping a design team translate otherwise disparate data about
stakeholders to relatable experiences and needs. The domain the
team is working within acts as a lens to highlight the attitudes and
context information that are relevant to the design project.
The team developed personas representing a teacher homeowner,
long-term neighbor, YRNO organization staff, and YRNO youth
volunteer to help guide design solutions based on the needs of
these stakeholders. Through these descriptions the design team is
able to better understand various relevant perspectives to inform
the design process. These personas then serve as a sounding
board to test design ideas and evaluate if they are meeting the
needs of the target stakeholders.

4.1 2754 St. Ann Street (open lot)
The open corner lot is a 60’ double parcel lot that provided a number of
interesting explorations for the team. Starting from the likely relocation of a
double shotgun, referred to here as the Waffl e House House (WHH), to this
site we ultimately landed on four possible scenarios for the lot(s):
• Maintain the Double Parcel and a generous yard for the new
WHH. (Option 1)
• Maintain the Double Parcel and reserve the interior parcel for a
public green space. (Option 2)
• Separate the two parcels into two 30’ lots, locate the WHH at the
street corner, and sell the vacant second interior lot for revenue.
(Options 3 & 4)
• Separate the two parcels into two 30’ lots, locate the WHH at the
street corner and build new construction at the second interior
lot. (Options 5 & 5.5)
The design team devised six iterations of these four scenarios based on
the unknown state of repair of the WHH as well as considerations for
new construction under the upcoming zoning changes. From community
gardens to pre-fabricated housing, the options presented provide a range of
opportunities for YRNO to develop this unique site as they feel best suits their
mission and practices.

4.2 2751 St. Ann Street (garage)
The lot with the garage structure and the existing apartment had several
challenges associated with it that called for a unique design approach. The
fi rst proposal for this plot is for YRNO to utilize the space for their operations
as a place for storage, bunk space, shower rooms, and a kitchen for volunteers.
The apartment would be renovated for the second fl oor to provide a dining
area, bathroom and kitchen spaces. Due to the low head height on the
ground fl oor of the existing apartment, it would remain as storage space.
The team’s suggestion is to demolish the concrete block structure allowing
certain remnants to exist as memories of the previous life of the site. The
storefront and existing auto entrance would remain and would allow
volunteers and workers to secure their vehicles or equipment within the
property. The lot would continue to hold its place on the street with a newly
activated storefront. Inside the site boundary a new “pole barn” structure
could be erected that would contain a fl ex space that could be the bunk
house. Also within the new structure dual locker and shower rooms would be
provided. The space between the new structure and the existing apartment
would be an outdoor space for the volunteer groups to use as a gathering
space.
Also provided is a set of plans that shows what could be done if at some point
the structures were to be converted to residential use and sold.

4.3 2753 St. Ann Street
Described as the jewel of the four YRNO properties, this century old shot gun
will provide a beautiful, yet affordable home for a deserving teacher. The
house’s siting on the 30’ x 100’ lot provides a generous side yard with off
street parking, a luxury in the Bayou St. John neighborhood.
The design team developed two design options for 2753 St. Ann Street. The
fi rst option is a single family home with 3 bedrooms and two baths. The
second option is multi-family with 2 bedrooms and 1 bath in the front with
a studio apartment in the rear. Both design options maintain the integrity
of the historic shot gun while providing a modern functional fl oor plan. The
addition of a side hall under a portion of the existing roof overhang not only
provides privacy for the bedrooms, but also creates a second entry directly
into the kitchen from the driveway.

4.3 2801 St. Ann Street (corner store)
This building exemplifi es the New Orleans corner store building typology,
with residential at the rear. The building offers a unique opportunity to
reintroduce a mixed use building to the neighborhood. The options for the
corner store provide the fl exibility to use the historic commercial street front
as a coffee shop, community center, tutoring space, or other public use while
allowing for a later conversion to an entirely residential building.
The property’s rear structure, can be renovated into a one bedroom rental
property. However, due to questions about its structural integrity, it may be
stabilized at a lower cost and used as an accessory structure. The options
for this building include enclosed parking and storage. Another option is to
demolish much of the south west wall (facing the main structure) to create a
covered outdoor space for the homeowners.
