The small town of Milesburg is rich with character and hidden beauties -- both natural and built.
Unfortunately, the community lacks a central gathering space for its residents, those taking advantage of
the river access for kayaking, and others passing through while enjoying one of the most popular kayak
routes in central Pennsylvania.
A kayak rental center will serve not only the adventure seekers in the immediate surrounding areas, as
well as become a pit stop along the kayak route, but will also include a cafe for the residents of
Milesburg. The design of the center uses forced perspectives that create experiential moments recalling those of a kayaking journey..
