our perception of the landscape is inti-mate, tenuous and unfixed. We learn that variations in climate, geography, time and custom shape people’s relationship with the landscape and if we are to truly grasp a sense of place we must flesh out these differences. in the classroom we are taught to develop a sensitivity to the land that will reveal a community’s unique sense of place because without this a garden is just a gar-den. the success of any designer is de-fined not by the beauty of her or his design but the sense of place it creates.
But we are not taught that places are estab-lished and exist under different standards. some places are young and easy to de-fine but others are rooted in challenge and complicated histories. Mountain view is a unique community bound by the Bosque and rich history of industry, agriculture, ur-

ban settlement and dispute. the boundary along 2nd street marks the division within the community and its sense of place. it also marks a challenge to rethink the pa-rameters of economy, ecology and welfare and reconcile the disparities between them.
our assignment was simple. redesign 2nd street. But along the way we realized that Mountain view holds much more meaning and purpose. this neighborhood has the potential to face its challenges through in-novative, elegant design and serve as an example of a beautiful reconciliation. the master plan and specific site designs pre-sented in this book are just the beginning. thank you to the people of Mountain view for your hospitality and invaluable support. We hope you find many useful ideas within these pages.

Prince acresPrince road is an important street for Mountain view residents who live on the east side of 2nd street. it is the most direct and safe way to get to the Mountain view community center. on the se corner of Prince road and rio Bravo Blvd, is a large 46 acre vacant and undeveloped site for sale. this site is zoned as M-2, which may lead to a future large industry business if not intervened.
Because this community is mainly surrounded by in-dustry, i propose an urban agricultural Development on this site to serve as a relief site for existing residents.
this development would mainly be a mixed use, site with recreational parks and a jewel center piece for a farmers Market along with many retail stores, restau-rants and offices and residential mixed in.
the purpose of this development is to wrap around the rio Bravo Blvd already developing street that is the main entrance to the proposed transit oriented Devel-opment north of rio Bravo.
But most importantly provide existing residents with access to much needed amenities that a residential neighborhood needs to be successful.

ParKs, trails anD access Pointsthe overarching goal of this design is to increase ac-cess to open space, parks, outdoor recreation, and gardens for the residents of Mountain view. By add-ing access point to the Bosque, increasing the amount of parks and connecting open space areas throughout Mountain view with recreation trails, all residents will benefi t from increased access to open natural space, parks and gardens.
goals
1. increase access to the Bosque, so that the nearby community can take full advantage of this asset within their neighborhood.2. Provide more open space and parks of various types including community gardens, play grounds, recreation facilities, and natural open spaces for exploration and observation.3. connect open spaces, parks and gardens through a series of paths and recreation trails for horses, bikes and pedestrians.
4. connect commuter bike trails to areas outside the immediate neighborhood. 5. help to maintain and reclaim the rural nature of Mountain view.6. Promote healthy lifestyles and environmental edu-cation opportunities. 7. Mitigate effects of pollution by preserving and in-creasing green space.

reDefineD lines | green line corriDorSecond Street is defined by both neighborhood and industry. the lines of this relationship are marked, or inscribed, in the land by the railroad and water chan-nels. These defining lines are linked with the transport of people, goods, and resources. historically they have lived side by side, one never without the other.
second street is both a story of history and passage, and a current metaphor for needed change between society and industry. Redefining the corridor’s function gives rise to a new form, a new spatial hierarchy that can meet the demands and desires of the current cen-tury.
A re-definition of environmental space results in a site specific street design that accounts for the unique sense of place while responding to the immediate problems of pollution and noise. the generous thirty-five foot right of way between Second Street and the rail makes it possible to propose it to begin to function
more as a linear park, a “green line” extending north and south and connecting two historical neighbor-hoods.
This linear park will also function as a filter between industry and residences. “shields” of clustered na-tive planting’s are strategically staggered to catch air bourne dust and particles generated from neighbor-ing industry. Rerouting truck traffic to a proposed relief route achieves traffic calming and inscribes a new line into the historical landscape; a re-defined line symbol-izing safe passage, health, and revitalization for the community.

Mountain view eleMentary schoolgoals
1. Propose a new master plan for new buildings, parking and playground that integrates with the surrounding community plan for circulation.2. identify and provide walking and biking routes within a 1-mile radius for students to have direct access to school without the use of a vehicle. 3. Provide safer entrance and exit pathways for vehi-cles and buses.
strategies
1. walking “school Bus”2. organized Bike groups3. expanded school Zone4. neighborhood Path network5. architecture as buffer to industry east of 2nd street
a walking school bus is a group of children walking to school with one or more adults. it provides a healthy,
low-cost solution to student transportation while also building a fundamental sense of community.
neighborhood Paths
option_1 is designed around the acequia to the south of Mountain view elementary. students are provided a large walking dirt path with green buffers to both the east and west.
option_2 consists of a fairly regular street and sidewalk spacing. It benefi ts from fewer children having to cross the street, but depth is lost from green buffer space.
option_3 has the majority of pedestrian/student ac-cess loaded to the east of the road. this allows for a substantial green buffer space as well as a larger path which is better suited to a “walking school bus strat-egy”

urBan wilDlife refugethe Mountain view national urban wildlife refuge will be New Mexico’s fi rst urban national wildlife refuge. the 570 acres of land will foster wildlife along the rio grande and provide urban ecological and agricultural education within the community.
through the design we are purposing a refugethat serves these functions and creates a place of ref-uge for all. the trust for Public land, in partnership with the us fish and wildlife service and Bernalillo county is at work securing the land and creating a vision for wildlife. our focus is to give the Mountain view neighborhood association a vision for the ben-efi ts to the urban community.
the urban wildlife refuge will serve the local commu-nity through education and recreation. it is designed to provide many educational opportunities showing the history of the place and teaching children the value of ecology and agriculture. the community will also ben-efi t from the refuge as a place for recreation such as hiking and bird watching.
the urban wildlife refuge will also serve as a local habitat corridor and extension of new Mexico’s sand hill crane fl yway. It is designed to support a range of habitats and wildlife.
a vision for the park’s ecological future is modeled from the Bosque del apache’s biological management plan. it is designed to slowly replace invasive species with cottonwoods, native willows and grasses, which will create three distinct habitat types within the refuge.
the riparian forest, scrub and meadow habitats will provide the necessary vegetation, spatial complexity and water quality to support a diverse wildlife commu-nity and restore this reach of the rio grande. in addi-tion to habitat restoration, the urban wildlife refuge will establish a permanent research facility on site to monitor restoration efforts and develop an adaptive management plan. this facility will be available to student research and non-profi t groups interested in riparian restoration.

The Giant Gas station is a one of the main landmarks in Mountain View. It is described as both a heart of the community and a place to be avoided.
Walmart on Rio Bravo and Coors, is not in the neighborhood but is visited often for necessities and residents frequently run into each other there. Some community members described is as a heart of the community, while others avoided it.
The river and the bosque area are valued in the community for recreation and are thought as hearts of the community.

The proposed wildlife refuge is described as crucial for the well-being of the community.
Process:
At a community meeting, community members were dived into five groups. In groups they were then asked to place stars on a map locating; where they live; where they hang out, or favorite place; where the heart of the community is; what places they avoid and where the events in the community are. Also, community members traced their daily routes with marker on the map. This information was then compiled into one large map. In response to the question, “Where is the heart of your community?”, Many stars were placed on the same location. These stars were counted and are displayed with one star. The more stars a particular location had the larger it is displayed here. Likewise, popular routes are shown with thicker lines to indicate more common routes.
This location was identified as a good place to view the stars.
The Elementary School is as important heart of the community and the location of many events in the community. Many in community would like to see a safer pedestrian route to the school.
The D & S Country Mart is also a heart in the community and a local hang out. The bulletin board here helps disseminate information.
The Community Center is as one of the most important hearts of the community and the location for many events.
Qualitative Map: Important Places and Routes
This map shows places in Mountain View that are valued by the community and places that are avoided. Most of the avoided places correlate with either unsafe traffic or heavy industry. The most valued places are associated with community events and are near 2nd St., making 2nd St. a vital spine of the neighborhood.

Agricultural and Vacant LandThere is a significant amount of open space in Mountain View, which is mostly comprised of the Rio Grande State Park, agricultural land and vacant properties. Of the total 5,224 acres in Mountain View, 22% (1,150 acres) is agricultural, and 43% (2,231 acres) is vacant land. Although Mountain View comprises only 4% of Bernalillo County, the neighborhood accounts for 42% of agricultural land and 8% of vacant land within the County.
A total of 37.3 miles of waterways pass through Mountain View. These include irrigation laterals and canals, stormwater drains, and floodways. There are also 2.3 miles of irrigation laterals and canals which have been abandoned, although their rights-of-way remain intact.

Changes in Land Use in the Middle Rio Grande Valley 1935 - 1992
Mountain View became more intensely developed from 1938 to 1992, although the amount of agriculturally productive land also increased during this time period. Since 1992, agricultural land use has decreased and industrial development hasexpanded.

Open storage, warehouse space and scrap metal yards make up a significant portion of the neighborhood economy and are equally distributed throughout Mountain View.
Mountain View exhibits a robust economy with a variety of services and industry. Retail, veterinary clinics and entertainment venues are just a few examples of the region’s local economy.
Mountain View sits at a critical juncture. The neighborhood’s rail and roads connect to the airport and the national railroad and road network. The proximity to the airport and interstate facilitates quick transporta-tion and product distribution.
Together the Mountain View rail and road network position the neighborhood as a central transportation hub for the state.
The proposed TOD sector plan in-cludes retail and business develop-ment. This could potentially attract local business investment and in-terest in Mountain View. The plan may also increase traffic and density.
Product manufacturing, storage, distrib-tution and retail are scattered through-out the neighborhood. A focused econ-omy, such as green techonology, could streamline these processes and establish competitive advantage.

The map shows three environmental health hotspots. These are comprised of scrap car businesses with associated petroleum products and other hazardous fluids; petroleate storage facilities which have leaked in the past; manufacturing operations which contribute to suspended particulates, and facilities which manufacture pesticides and other toxic chemicals. All of these businesses have contributed to soil, water and air contamination within the neighborhood.

Data is courtesy of AGIS, Bernalillo County GIS, MRGCD GIS, and UNM School of Architecture and Planning. Users are solely responsible for verifying the accuracy of the data.
This map shows the employment numbers for Mountain View. Employment is broken down into three types, Basic, Service, and Retail, and is illustrated in the pie shaped diagrams. These indicate that majority of employment types are Basic and Service with very little Retail. Employment com-pared to population is illustrated in the bar graphs. These graphs show an overall extreme condition in either population or employment in most geographic areas. The inset map is a comparison of Mountain View and the Journal Center in the amount of Basic employment found in each. Moun-tain View accounts for 1.4% of Bernallio County overall employment and 3.7% of Bernallio County Basic employment base.

The map shows three environmental health hotspots. These are comprised of scrap car businesses with associated petroleum productions which contribute to suspended particulates, and facilities which manufacture pesticides and other toxic chemicals. All of these businesses have contributed to soil, water and air contamination within the neighborhood.

The map shows the residential areas of the Mountain View area and the resudential relationship to human circulation and importaint nodes within the community. It also shows the important needs for future development as related to the residential areas. These needs are better walkability, escape routes for the sotheren residents, and more amenities for residential use.

Parks and Open Space Map
NOTE:
Maps were created by students in the DPAC Studio of the School of Architecture and Planning, and are for planning purposes only. Data is courtesy of AGIS, Bernalillo County GIS, MRGCD GIS, and UNM School of Architecture and Planning. Users are solely responsible for verifying the accuracy of the data.
This map shows parks and open space within the Mountain View neighborhood. Ambassador Edward L. Romero Park and Mountain View Community Park are the only two parks that serve a population of approximately 4,231. The charts below provide compari-sons of parks and open space between Bernalillo County, the City of Albuquerque and Mountain View. The data show that Mountain View has the highest percentage of open space in the county because of the adjacent Bosque and the proposed wildlife refuge. Howev-er, if one considers only developed parks, which total 9.5 acres the number of acres of open space per one thousand people falls below the national average. According to The National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA), the US national average is five acres per one thousand people.

NOTE:
Maps were created by students in the DPAC Studio of the School of Architecture and Planning, and are for planning purposes only. Data is courtesy of AGIS, Bernalillo County GIS, MRGCD GIS, and UNM School of Architecture and Planning. Users are solely responsible for verifying the accuracy of the data.
The map shows the main road classifications of the Mountain View community as well as noted problem areas. Intersections at Prosperity and 2nd St. and Mountain View Elemntary School and 2nd St. lack turn lanes which reesults in increased congestion and dangerous driving conditions. The intersection at Rio Bravo and 2nd St. suffers from traffic and poor light timing as well as a lack of necessary turn signals. Lack of pedestrian/bike access makes conditions along 2nd St. dangerous for community members, particularly in the region between Joy Junction and the existing bus stop.
