how can an apartment building connect people to economic opportunity?

This site is centrally located in New Orleans, potentially affording its residents access to jobs. However, it exists along an edge condition with the interstate creating a pedestrian and vehicular barrier to the neighboring Central Business District (CBD). This housing project aims at creating a connection between the CBD and the apartment building via a programmed underpass. The formal moves of the building create a covered bus stop shelter at the entrance - enabling greater access and ease of use of the existing public transportation.
