Recycling of Stanard School

The deconstruction of Stanard School was an opportunity for the entire community to participate in re-using materials otherwise destined for a landfill. Besides upcycling material into new uses and the re-birth of lumber, APOC facilitated the recycling of thousands of bricks that comprised Stanard School.

Stanard School Recycling Project

In collaboration with Councilman Joe Cimperman, APOC provided bricks free of charge to community members as well as to the urban gardeners who will be using the Stanard property for urban agriculture and youth education in the future. This land use is permitted by Cleveland's unique Urban Garden Zoning law.
