Bicycle Shed 2003

The Bicycle Shed is a rehabilitation project completed on a failing, city-owned structure in York, Alabama. The structure's main purpose is to house the utility NOW! vehicles that were created by the municipalWORKSHOP in 2003. This project involves a number of low-impact design features and has become a catalyst for a community bicycle-recycling program in York. Community volunteers Jessie Cunningham and Ervin Sturdivant, Jr. currently run the bicycle-recycling workshop with the help of the Coleman Center for Art and Culture. The Bicycle Shed's water system works through rainwater harvesting, and all of the used water is pumped outside the building to surrounding plant beds. A hand washing station is located at the back of the building, and the structure is equipped with a functional TV/Radio antenna and a small solar power platform.
