25 of manufactured homes to meaningfully address housing affordability. At the same time, by confronting regulatory frameworks, disciplinary biases, and cultural narratives that have long constrained manufactured housing, they raise a broader question for small cities: how do the systems that govern land use and design shape who is able to belong? Reframing manufactured housing as legitimate and valuable expands recognition of these communities and access to participation in the social life of a place, rather than pushing entire communities to the margins. Reese Greenlee is an architect and Assistant Professor at Kansas State University. Emma Silverblatt is an architect and the Judith Kinnard Early Career Design Fellow at Cornell University. Their collaborative research examines manufactured housing as a critical yet overlooked form of affordable housing, engaging questions of legal liminality, spatial stigma, and resident agency. Through community-engaged pedagogy — including partnerships with non-profit developers and residents of manufactured home communities — they bring this underrepresented typology into architectural education and discourse. Their work has been presented at the ACSA/ AIA Intersections Research Conference and published in Log. Small City Social & Cultural • Feature • Silverblatt & Greenlee Countryside Mobile Home Park.
