This is the Downtown site that I have chosen as the site for my project. As one can see it is located at a four way intersection which will mean that I will have to mkae some changes to the land to have a nice flow in the area and also somehow create a sound muffler to reduce noise from the cars at the intersection.

Biking is a popular -& green!- way to travel. Yet if there is nowhere to lock up your bike, people may be discouraged to use their bike to get around. Did you know that you can Request a new bike rack in your area? Cities all over the U.S. have multiple types of bike racks they can install and all you have to do is submit a request.
