Nicely done! You have provided very thorough research and made decisions based on what you found. I appreciate the time spent discussing your ideas and process throughout the project. I especially like the sketches and experimentation that you showed in the Develop Solutions step. Great Job!

When referencing online resources, be sure to link to the website! This makes it easy for your reviewers to check it out as well.

Great research!

So glad you were able to visit the site in person! This makes such a difference in understanding the conditions and possibilities.

You've found some great parks to take inspiration from. I appreciate the variety of sketching and renderings that you used to show your design ideas. The final project used topography in a creative way to bring interest to the design and divide up the spaces.

It was great to see the YouTube animation. Your project takes advantage of topography and elevation changes as an interesting way to define borders and separate uses. The renderings and video illustrate this nicely. Good job!

Thanks for showing the context. Do you imagine that most people will enter the park from the parking lot side?

TRIZ sounds like an interesting way of thinking about things. I'm not totally following it based on what's presented here, but there are definitely some gems here.

The sunken tennis court is certainly an interesting design move, and that's great that you're drawing on your own observations from various places. But I'm wondering how large your site is. Typically, "pocket parks" aren't large enough to accommodate tennis courts, soccer fields, and bike paths.

It's great to think about adjacencies like this. Is your site the orange dot or is that another park? It would be helpful to see more of a close up shot of the park, so that we could understand access to roads, existing trees, structures, etc. That would also help me get a sense of how large it is.

You've done a lot of great research. The document looks really thorough, but unfortunately I can't read it. Next time, consider using the text field instead of posting a screenshot of a doc.
