Evidence of Life-Community Revitalization Visioning

In the spring of 2022, faculty and students from South Dakota State University’s School of Design
collaborated with Kansas State University Technical Assistance to Brownfields (TAB) and leaders
from Arkansas City, Kansas to develop a long-range planning concept for brownfield sites in the
downtown core. SDSU Students majoring in graphic design, interior design, landscape architecture
and architecture, led by Dr. Pat Crawford, Dr. Elizabeth Tofte, Seojoo Han, and Ray Rayburn,
developed concepts for improving downtown based on seven priorities identified by stakeholders at
the community input meeting on February 5, 2022.  A reveal of the report was held at the the Burford
on June 20, 2022.  The recording of the presentation can be viewed here:
