Has there been any significant study of what you might call “architectural recoding” where buildings are repurposed in a new way for a new political-cultural environment with little to no physical modification or aging?
Like Hagia Sofia: church —> mosque —> museum?

Vegan coop house I lived in for 2 years in grad school was a zen temple before that. But it was just a regular Ann Arbor house physically.
Sounds like a regular Ann Arbor house spiritually

No that would be a football house... hippie fringe has always been a bit weaker in AA relative to comparable college towns like Berkeley or Ithaca I think
