    WASSON WAY:Hyde Park-Rookwood Opportunities & Constraints

    2014

    The Wasson Way is a proposed transit and bike trail that would start in Evanston and go out past Marrimont. My section of the proposed path is Hyde Park which includes Rookwood Commons and Pavilion, I-71, Withrow High School and Recreation Center, as well as Hyde Park Square. In this diagram we look at the opportunities and con-straints of the future path including connection to Rookwood and the intersection of Madison and Edwards.

    After organizing the opportunities and constraints of the Wasson Way proposed path, we then pulled out features for different projects that could emerge. One of the major projects include reconstruction of the intersection of Madison and Edwards creating a more pedestrian and bike friendly roadway. A second major project would be the de-signing of a TOD (transit oriented development) along the trial at existing commercial areas.

    Once a year, Pop-up Party on the Plaza. Featuring live music, food trucks, retail, and beer tasting, local breweries.

    Theater PerformancesTheatre performances held by CCM groups during the summer for students and residents.

    Annual ramp con-test ran by Cincy SnowCats, the Universitys ski and snowboard club.

    Weekly yoga classes during spring, summer, and fall seasons. Small cost, possible discount to students. Teachers may come from the rec.

    Students coming together to tail gate before home football games. May have RallyCats or cheerleaders as a apart of event. Vendors (food, beer, gear), games (corn hole) and music.

    Park(ing) Day is a national event where artist transform a parking space into public space for a day. This event would be placed in the meter spots along Short Vine. Create a contest between the different design schools and artists of Cincinnati. Small fee to enter.

    WASSON WAY:Community Engagement Programming

    In the summer of 2013, groups of planners were teamed up fine art stu-dents and assigned to work on Short Vine St. which is located in Corryville and close proximity to the University of Cincinnati. For our project we de-cided to make the street an entertainment district along with a community engagement programming to bring more students to the neighborhood. Below is a list of proposed events that would be held throughout the year.

  • Green space with walking path and fountain as a walkway from parking to building

    Small Community park for tenets and costumers.

    Revamped parking with added streetscape.

    Mixed-use development with a focus on entertainment and retail.

    Commercial buildings along Elliot that will be accompanied by on street parking.

    Mixed use development. Commercial on the bottom floor with apartments on the top floors.

    AutoCAD in the spring 2012, we created a mixed-use development in downtown Cincin-nati. We used AutoCAD, GIS, and GoogleEarth to create this sketch concept. The concept expresses ideas for the new development such as the community park.

    AUTOCAD PROJECT:Site Plan & Elevation

    After the concept was developed, I creat-ed a more structured site plan and site el-evation. The site plan (on the right) shows the dimensions of the buildings, parking spaces, and the change of direction of the roads. The site plan was designed us-ing AutoCAD along with Adobe Illustrator. The site elevation (below) shows an ex-ample of how the buildings would be de-signed with commercial on the first level and businesses and residential on the upper floors. This elevation was designed in AutoCAD and Adobe Photoshop.

    These 3-D renderings were created in AutoCAD. They show the height of the existing and the new building of the development. Be-sides the height of the buildings, the uses of the floors of buildings are shown. Commercial areas are located on the first level of the buildings with office space and residential units on the upper floors.

    OVER-THE-RHINE

    Cathleen Consilio: Winter 2011-2012

    Problem: It is know that Over-The-Rhine is one of the most violent neighborhood in America, but in the past years there has been redevelopment of the area. I wanted to see if the violent crime has decreased because of the development or has spread into the surrounding neighborhoods as a result of displace-ment.

    Results: I expected that the crime would have somewhat decreased over the years but to this was not the case. The violent crime within the neighborhood of Over-The-Rhine more than doubled over the three year span. Not only did Over-The-Rhines violent crime increase but the surrounding neighborhoods also all increased.

    Conclusion: The conclusion would be that the crime of Over-The-Rhine increase dramatically over that three year span along with the surrounding neighborhoods. This increase may be due to the Recession of the economy that started in 2008. It has been another three years, so we could reassess the neighborhoods to see if there was anymore change of violent crimes.

    In the winter of 2011-2012, I did a small study on the violent crimes in Over-The-Rhine and surrounding neighborhoods in Cincinnati,OH. I received the data in an excel sheet and exported the crime data into GIS (Geographic Information Systems. Cincinnati has been working on decreasing the high crime rate and I questioned if the crime was decreasing, dispersing, or increasing. I mapped out the crimes in GIS and cre-ated the graphs within Microsoft Excel. This poster was created through Adobe Illustrator.

    In the Autumn of 2011, our class was challenged to create neighborhood developments within the area of Devou Park in Covington, Kentucky. My Partner, Jimmy Rosen, and I first started to make a physical analysis of the park to gain a better understanding of the po-tential opportunities and challenges we would face in the future. To make these physical analysis maps we combined maps and topologogy from GIS, Geographic Information System, and then used Adobe Illustrator to show levels of vegetation, slope, and physical attribu-tions such as water run off.

    Following the analysis of Devous physical attributions (slope, vegetation, and water run off) we created a suitability map. This suitability map depicts the most suitable areas to develop on, fol-lowed by less suitable, and low suitable. We also showed some constraints of the park, such as high vegetation and potentials of the park, such as the view of Cincinnati. To create this map we used the pen tool in Illustrator to outline the areas of suitability.

    After completing the park suitability analysis and receiving our section of the park, indicated by map in top left corner, Jimmy and I started the design process. The highly dense vegetation and swales dictated where we could develop. When designing our neighborhood we want-ed to focus on connectivity and green space.

    There were three main components to our design of the neighborhood. The first expressed in the segment above is the abundance of green space and walkability. There is a centralized park with walking paths that connect all the homes and mixed use commercial buildings. It was important to us that each building had direct access to green space. The second component show in the middle is the mixed use building. We wanted to make sure that the parking was in the rear of buildings that shield the pavement and cars from the community. Thirdly, last example, we wanted to show the housing and how it connects to the green space. I designed theses renderings by hand using colored pencils

    DEVOU PARK:Proposed Neighborhood Design

  • In the Winter of 2010-2011, we did revamp projects for different business districts within Cincinnati. My part-ner, Jimmy Rosen, and I had the neighborhood of Evanston. This was the first time we ever used GIS, so we did analysis of Hamilton County, Cincinnati, and our neighborhood Evanston. Above a some examples of the GIS work I did for the project.
