The Wheat Belt reimagines infrastructure as a civic and productive landscape, transforming a truss-based bridge in The Bronx into a hub for agriculture, logistics, and community interaction. This crop-growing facility integrates wheat production, processing, and consumption into the urban fabric, creating new green job opportunities and celebrating the culture of "dirty infrastructure."

The truss structure is both functional and performative, adapting to site-specific needs by incorporating crop production, storage, mechanical systems, and public spaces. Programs like a hardware store-bakery merge industrial and social activities, serving as a shared space for agricultural workers, residents, and commuters to negotiate cultural differences and build community.

By connecting transportation networks, civic spaces, and production systems, the project creates a node where regional and local scales converge. It challenges traditional distinctions between public and industrial spheres, redefining infrastructure as a dynamic social and material ecosystem that fosters maintenance, production, and collective engagement.
