Made in the Lower East Side (miLES) open storefronts to possibilities by creating short-term multi-use spaces as community hubs. The miLES Storefront Transformer, designed by Architecture Commons, is a set of modular furniture bundled with support services that will enhance the mission of miLES. We make it quick and easy to turn underutilized storefronts into anything you can imagine. We give entrepreneurs and artists an easy and affordable way to showcase their work. The neighborhood gets a variety of vibrant programmed uses in a previously vacant space. Landlords get short-term rental income and increased visibility to help them find a longer-term tenant for their space. It is a win-win proposition for multiple stakeholders.
