The New Age
05/20/15
This final render of my design is to take notice to certain hidden aspects to my pocket park. It's walls surround the centralized region were incorporated to provide a sense of privacy and also to apply to the theory behind having an oasis within the park. Also, how the sustainable element of the fountain and the fountain itself plays an immense role within the sanctuary. What else would've been the main focal point to the centralized region? Any who, overall I'm pleased with the fact that the park has met a numerous amount of predetermined goals I set out for myself. I believe that this pocket park has elements of more in-depth thought and design that anything I've produced.

What should I upload in the Final Design step?
- final hand or digital renderings
- images of your finished physical model
- or your finished digital model
You can even include links to a YouTube or Vimeo of a digital walk-through like this one: https://youtu.be/ncaVQ2V6XXU
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
Outline of the park is really thought out. Also the placement of everything works out fairly nice. The overall simplicity is great, nice job.
The park turned out well, but can you explain the function of the tables surrounding the fountain? From the looks of it, none of the tables are accompanied by chairs. Sorry if I missed something in any of your descriptions ahead of time if you had already explained the tables' function in the plan.
The layout looks cool but because of the Vegas sun it is wise to put at least one shade structure in or trees that would provide more shade for the center area.
