Transitions

The Three Fingers lends itself as a natural destination for this project given its close proximitytowell-establishedcommunityanchors and tourism activities. Locating the project at this site increases the diversity of available activities and at the same time promotes stewardship subconsciously to passerby’s. Currently as you approach Chelan on ALT 97 north bound, this cluster of businesses on the lake do not invoke a sense of beauty or idyllic ruggedness that the natural surroundings do. While not ‘ugly’ or even strictly industrial looking, there is an ‘auto shop aesthetic’ that unfortunately spills out from the watercraft rental shops. I would like my project to help soften the existing contrast that this commercialized area is having along this shoreline.
