Vision
Little Haiti is known historically as Lemon City, Little River and Edison. It is home to many Haitian immigrant residents, as well as many residents from the rest of the Caribbean. Little Haiti is a known neighborhood of Haitian exiles. people are always trying to be united in order to become stronger and to preserve their culture and customs, this town also knows that there are a large number of crimes committed and political problems that reduce the number of tourists. So we wanted to give them a chance to unite, to cooperate, to become one hand, to fight corruption, to build a safer world, and to bring more tourists to know the culture of the country. so we decided that the main idea of the project should be unity and the name of the project ( A CHANCE ). we noticed that in most parts of the city the houses are facing each other, so we respected that in our project. little haiti is distinguished by their love of art and dance, and you can see that from their dance performances, the paintings on the walls, the galleries and museums in the city. they have a culture center in the city that gathers all these activities in one place. so we decided to do the same in our project ,so that they wouldn't give up on this beautiful activities that characterize the city .
