A number of the proposed features of the DownUnder project are designed to be fully interactive, allowing the community to utilize
the materials available to suit their particular needs. For example, customizable seating gives community members the opportunity to
create unique social settings for a variety of events and gatherings. Other interactive elements, such as those meant to engage
community members on social media sites, are also meant to connect the Rockaways to other communities in New York City.
