The Whetstone Patio project was the fi rst project I was assigned as an Intern at Recreation and Parks. I designed, estimated, and managed the construction of the patio and it will be completed by early May 2011.

Alley Way Systems
My Weinland Park project was about making a system that worked for a transitional community made up of 90% renters and incorporated the theme of urban agriculture. The areas of land are then broken down into uses and the profi ts possible to the land owner or renter.

Implementing the system into the alley ways was considered during the entire process. Pricing, average lot size, and safety concerns were all problems I sought to solve throughout the project.
West Broad StreetCasino Master Plan
The West Broad Casino Project was a full quarter in length and consisted of four phases. The last phase involved concepts such as an underground parking lot that’s used as a sled hill and a live work play atmosphere that incorporated mixed use zoning and a large central green space.
This was the second project assigned to me at Recreation and Parks. I designed, requisitioned, and managed the construction of the park. The community was very involved with this project and showed me how to design something desirable and stay on a small budget.
Beechcroft ParkNortheast Columbus, Ohio
Surrounding the park area was mixed use, retail, and residential buildings. With this in mind, I created a space that could be used for corporate gatherings, event space for local retail, and a local park for residents.
The Columbus Commons project was about exploring bold ideas with a corporate sponsor, mine being Limited Brands. Multiple time based systems dictated usable space, whether it be bollards to close a road or water features that opened up reading spaces.

Rust Belt Mood
Garden for a Song was a project based on the translation of music into physical space. Billy Joel’s Allen Town was my song of choice and with this song, I believe I interpreted the feeling and atmosphere of the steel mill shut down into a purposeful physical space.

The construction details on this page are from a project that incorporated wood decking which was built on top of a sloped surface that collected storm water. The storm water was then cleaned with reeds and then discharged into a retention basin.
