Very cool final model! I have a hunch that you did a bit more exploration and brainstorming than you let on! I would suggest you beef up that content to let us know how you got to your final design.

I am incredibly impressed that you chose to develop and execute a physical model for this competition. Well done! I also really enjoyed your plan maps. Those really helped me figure out the possibilities for your park.
You were very clear in sharing what local site you looked at while you were brainstorming and also included some shots from Google maps to help figure out where your work was going to go. It would have been helpful to include images that you thought could inspirations for your project. It was really hard to tell where some of the ideas in your park came from--you did such a beautiful job!

Did you look at any other parks to find inspiration?

I am really impressed that you made a physical model of your site! Is this work to scale? The benches seem really big.

This is a truly amazing and unique model you've designed. I don't completely understand each section of the site, so maybe some better descriptions could help look deeper into your design. Also, some more shading around the center region could be helpful. Is the blue region a sort of water attraction or water play area? If so, that's a really cool concept along with the rest of the play regions. I'm guessing the demographics represent a region filled with families, so that kind of accomplished that goal. Maybe add some more shading devices like a pavilion, but overall a really cool model of your site.
