Detroit Horse Power Instills Life Lessons Through Equestrian Activities
“The Detroit Horse Power Equestrian Center addresses two of the city’s persistent problems: the shortage of opportunities in Metro Detroit for neighborhood children and the abundance of vacant land,” says Michael Poris, AIA, founding partner of MPA. “Our design creates an inclusive, welcoming gathering point for the community and fits the site’s context. We address both human and equine needs in a way that authentically celebrates Detroit’s diversity.”
