Winter 2014

In January-March 2014, the University of Washington Landscape Architectures Neighborhood Design Studio focused on the Greenwood-Phinney neighborhood of Seattle to identify and envision ways of improving the neighborhoods streets and open spaces. The Greenwood-Phinney Greenways group served as a key stakeholder for the 12 Bachelor of Landscape Architecture (BLA) students in this studio led by Associate Professor Julie Johnson.
The students learned about the neighborhood and gained insights on their design ideas from community members. They got underway by exploring and analyzing aspects of the neighborhood, identifying opportunities, and visiting local precedents. Students met with community members one evening in mid-January at the Greenwood Branch Library, to learn more about the neighborhoods features and potentials. Community members were invited to three subsequent design discussions at UWs Gould Hall, addressing initial design ideas, design schemes, and refined proposals.
As part of their initial scoping, the students identified three interrelated systems to address designs for a healthier Greenwood-Phinney neighborhood: movement systems to support safe and appealing pedestrian and bicycle networks;
civic systems to engage diverse groups in shared play, learning and stewardship; and
ecological systems to improve urban environmental conditions such as stormwater, habitat, and urban agriculture.
While each student undertook an individual design project, their work overlaps and connects with others projects spatially and programmatically. They sought to coordinate these relationships, to cross scales, and to suggest short term as well as longer range potentials. The projects include design proposals for certain streets to support walking and bicycling, such as greenways, as well as open space interventions to enrich ecological and community life towards a healthier neighborhood. Following the studios presentations in March, a community member initiated potential for the studio to display their designs as part of the Phinneywood Art Walk May 9 and 10. Collaborating with community members, the studio transformed a vacant commercial space at the corner of N. 85th Street and Greenwood Avenue N. into a series of interactive exhibits augmented by Greenways and community venues. Visitors were encouraged to add sticky note comments on the students boards, to afford a visual conversation on the varied proposals. Greenways and community members provided information on Seattle Neighborhood Greenways, a childrens play space, a space for watching videos on improving streets, a comment wall for people to express their ideas for the neighborhood, and refreshments. Images are found at the end of this booklet.

A collection of designs to revitalize
the empty and unattractive spaces
along Greenwood Avenue North:
This project serves as a guide for
not only Greenwood Avenue North,
but all neighborhoods with empty
and unwelcoming spaces.
Each design suggests a solution
for vacant lots, empty storefronts,
alleyways, and restaurants with the
potential for outdoor seating.
These designs introduce vibrant
color, urban play, and promote
social interactions.
These designs brings new life
to lost and forgotten spaces but
making them useable. Extensive
analysis of Greenwood Avenue
N influenced each design, with
careful consideration of the current
conditions and needs. Influenced by
the existing Greenwood Art Walk,
this project includes a proposal
for a smart phone application: A
Greenwood Ave Photo Scavenger
Hunt. Using this method, all
proposed designs are visited along
an interactive journey.

ContextThe Greenwood Town Center is the heart of Greenwood and a resource for surrounding neighborhoods and beyond. It is a place where people can walk from one unique shop to another, live close to an abundance of amenities, and connect with their community.
Predicted future development will make the Greenwood Town Center denser with more mixed use buildings, increased pedestrian oriented shopping and living spaces where non-auto modes of transportation to and within the area are favored. This will create more business, living and community building opportunities.
Through this studio, I explored what a future, healthier, denser, mixed-use, pedestrian oriented town center might look like and what the community can do to move towards that long term vision.

A series of
typologies
based on
SDOTs street
classifications
of critical
intersections
within the
Greenwood-
Phinney
neighborhoods
of Seattle:
This unique
intersection
creates a heart
for the existing
community, and
through simple
intervention,
prioritizes
bikes and
pedestrians
along side a
vibrant system
of water
management
and cultural
integrity.

The focus of this project is to reveal a hidden ecological history in Greenwood, fostering a stronger connection between the neighborhood and Pipers Creek watershed. The remains of a glacial peat bog are currently covered by tarmac and concrete. Water is piped away from absorbant layers of partially decomposed Spagnum moss, caus

historic headwaters of Pipers Creek will be partially revealed. The life cycle of the urban stream is primarily concealed through culvertization and diversion to rigid piping systems. By revealing the streams journey at key moments stormwater resilience and public understanding of
At Sandel Park the historic peat bog is revealed through excavation. Sandel is currently poorly drained, especially at its south west corner. An opportunity for green stormwater infrastructure and ecological literacy is apparent.
At the crossing of Holman and 7th Ave the pedestrian connection to Carkeek Park is improved. The pedestrian and bicycle connection to Carkeek is currently very limited, especially when approached from the south. This project proposes the purchase of two currently vacant lots on the south and north side of Holman, connecting the two with a pedestrian and cyclist overpass. The south lot will host a skate dot and a demonstration garden highlighting the
stormwater detention pond, where visitors are given the opporCarkeek

According to Seattles Citywide Skateparks Plan, a skatedot is a piece of integrated skateable terrain designed to blend seamlessly into small neighborhood parks. Unlike a large skatepark, these features may not exceed1,500 square feet, should complement or enhance adjacent landscaping, and may support other types of uses beyond skateboarding. By including skatedots in its small parks, Seattle will create networks of safe, accessibleskate trails throuhgout the city. This will help attract existing skateboardingactivity into appropriate areas and build an inclusive environment for practitioners of this popular active sport.

The northern most proposed skate dot is a vacant lot that provides a premium opportunity for the location of an active space . Another studio design has proposed a pedestrian footbridge to cross Holman road and would land at this location. The proposed P -1 neighborhood green way is located on this block as well. Located adjacent to the block is a shopping center , additionally the southern entrance to Carkeek Park is within a block. Storm watertreatment , and examples of sustainable practices could set examples for the community to learn from at this small site. 0 20 FEET

Plans for the lot located north of Greenwood Public Library to be converted into a public park space are being addressed by other members of the neighborhood studio. This is an ideal site to establish a connection of active space in the center of the Greenwood neighborhood. It sits along the business corridor, and is located a block away from the proposed P-1 green way that runs along 1st Avenue. This site is being approached as a collaboration with other members of this studio. Subtle elements would be installed as skate-able pieces, but also doubling in function through ecology, or practicality.

Located in the southeastern region of the Greenwood neighborhood is small, and historic Linden Orchard Park. This site is in the center of a residential neighborhood that is bordered on its eastern periphery by Greenlake and the Woodland Park & Zoo. Located in lower Woodland Park is one of the citys larger skate parks. This would serve as the ideal anchor to an arm of active space skate dots spanning through Greenwood and connecting to the already established Crown Hill skate dot. Located a block from the studio-proposed green way, running along Fremont Ave, Linden Park would serve as an installation site of skate-able elements that correspond to the existing design of the park.

Why call this the power trail? People power, neighborhood power, powerlines, the power of opportunity and cooperation,
food as a source of power and nourishment for the community. At the north end of the greenwood neighborhood is a well
worn path which connects an alley culture to the interurban trail, Greenwood park and Evanston p-patch. located b
