BJ Wright Courts Summer Design/Build Program

BJ Wright Courts

Partners – Chicago Community Development Corporation & After School Matters

1354 South Morgan

Located on the Near West Side just south of the University of Illinois Chicago Campus, archi-treasures has partnered with residents of Barbara Jean Wright Courts, an affordable housing complex, for the past ten years, offering a summer job program for teens. Youth will assess the condition of past archi-treasures projects, create a plan for their repair, and will then work on their own design/build project to add to the BJ grounds.
