A planted median and on-street parking can help the road feel more intimate and make it safer for pedestrians and bicyclists to cross. A generous multi-use path provides a much needed infrastructure for residents to get to the new development and surrounding neighborhoods by foot or on bicycles. http://www.completeblocks.com/blog/2014/6/13/15-dress-up-the-skyline-at-romare-bearden-park monthly 0.5 2014-06-13 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/52d70f93e4b049ce32f43c43/t/539b22ebe4b02f47aa7b035e/1402675953802/skyline-before Blog - 15 | Dress up the Skyline at Romare Bearden Park Before: Skyline view standing in Romare Bearden Park. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/52d70f93e4b049ce32f43c43/t/539b2338e4b01e62013801ab/1402676029933/skyline-after Blog - 15 | Dress up the Skyline at Romare Bearden Park After: Make the skyline more colorful! http://www.completeblocks.com/blog/2014/3/24/10-adaptive-reuse-in-wilmington-nc monthly 0.5 2014-04-02 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/52d70f93e4b049ce32f43c43/t/533052c3e4b078ca803ca9b8/1425041475313/BrewHorseRendering_AllenDavis.jpg Blog - 10 | Adaptive Reuse in Wilmington, NC After: Put sidewalk dining, public art, and new business on the street.

This concept to put the park back in the Reid Park neighborhood is a part of Dylan McKnight's Master thesis work. Working with the community, they came up with a vision and presented it to the the City of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County Parks and Recreation department. The funds have been committed to this project and the park will be constructed in the near future, all though a community-led process! See this video for a look at how the community design process unfolded.

Proposed Platform: The Michigan Central Station not only serves as a hub for transportation but a means for thermal comfort. The Michigan Central Station uses strategies to reduce urban heat as it relates to people's outdoor thermal comfort and the quality of comfort when people move place to place. These strategies include direct transportation, cool structures, and enhanced vegetation. Solar panel shelters are implemented, providing a sense of comfort that serves a multi-purpose of shade and providing a power source for people. In addition, the rail tracks are now a greenway which adds empathize of reducing urban heat and the area is well shaded as you walk through the platform to your destination. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/52d70f93e4b049ce32f43c43/t/5974cee0bebafb04b95a4d48/1500827372601/ Blog - 28 | Put a Park and Transit on it!

Proposed Park part 1: The design is a response to all the hardscape surfaces that were abandoned. Improvements start in the vegetation and morph into a place that people stay to enjoy. The inflatable blossom flower sculpture provides shade in a creative way as you sit underneath. In the center of the park, there's a lighting sculpture that makes itself visible and reveals written historical moments embedded in steel material. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/52d70f93e4b049ce32f43c43/t/5974cf1e440243f8d193c885/1500827430890/ Blog - 28 | Put a Park and Transit on it!
