This is a clearer image of the curved walkway. It has a wide space enough for biking. The rubber flooring makes it suitable for comfortable walking and biking. People can share this space with people doing different activities. They can take a walk or sit down to enjoy the scenery. The walkway is surrounded by bushes and a tree in the middle to provide good air quality.

Adaptive Reuse

Architects often find creative ways to reuse old structures that are no longer in use. Check out how old rail lines were adapted to create New York's High Line and Chicago's 606.

Comments

The rubber flooring is a very good idea to make walking more comfortable. I also like how you put seating on the planters with the bushes. Not a lot of people would think about doing that.

The trees in the center, the surrounding greenery, and the unique design of benches give this design a very aesthetically pleasing look. It looks like a magnificent place I would like to spend an afternoon in.
