A canopy and a facade lend an aura of newness to the Michael Callen-Audre Lorde Community Health Center in New York, NY. Formerly known as the Community Health Project, the center is designed to see to the needs of the city's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender community and people with HIV/AIDS. Designed by Thanhauser & Esterson, the 27,000-sq-ft facility has been expanded, with flexible areas created for its various activities. The first floor is for community events and education, health education and the Health Outreach To Teens program, while the top floor is for administrative services.
