This project explores revitalizing Redwood Creek in Redwood City, California through environmental design at multiple scales. At the city scale, it proposes transforming the creek corridor into an urban greenway connecting downtown to the bay. At the site scale, it encourages the community to rediscover and embrace the creek. Finally, at the detail scale it aims to evoke the creek's ecological value and inform the community. The overall goal is to promote sustainability through re-envisioning the creek corridor.
2. “Although changes in policy and practice at a regional scale are
essential to address environmental problems, it is equally important
to practice environmental design at the site scale, where changes
can accumulate to produce landscape-scale patterns overtime.”
-William Wenk
