Chris Risher Sr.’s most iconic project, and one looking as much like an art installation as a building complex, is this facility dedicated to the care of neglected and abused children. On the crown of the sloping site, he arranged side-by-side, five identical, south-facing residential units. Each one is a flat-roofed brick-and-glass box with a cantilevered entrance canopy. To the west of each, there is a steel-framed patio enclosure with a roof sunscreen of steel rods and to the east a brick utility room with a canopy defining a smaller patio. A continuous, bi-level steel canopy on slender piers connects the units along a promenade of more than three hundred feet. Hope Village offices are located across the street in the brick and stone Tudor Revival former residence (c. 1927) at 2433 23rd Avenue.
