Mount Nittany divides two valleys of relatively equal (and even) elevation. Tussey Mountain and Bald Eagle Mountain flank the valley region to its southwest and northeast (respectively). These features define the drainage area for the Watershed. The general gradient for elevation across the Watershed follows the same direction as the water flow: south to north. It is along these higher order streams and around Bellefonte where elevation is lowest, as water exits the Watershed.

e most impaired streams in the Spring Creek watershed are in the valley. State College, the most populated city in the creek, is also located in the valley. Stormwater, agricultural and urban runo are the main pollutants in the watershed. Hence, the Creek’s impairment is a due to the various land uses surrounding it. In some cases, climate change could result to water impairment, leaving the in icted displaced. My design intent is to accommodate 200,000 climate refugees, while providing restoration to the Spring Creek watershed.

For the geology and floodplain maps, we wanted to explore the different types of bedrock within the watershed and how that ties in with the terrain and water flow within the floodplain. We noticed more limestone and dolomite in the valleys, which are more porous when water reacts. These types of rocks will eventually start to erode due to precipitation, this will then create the underground caverns that store the groundwater in our watershed (causing sinkholes which are common the Spring Creek Watershed) On the ridges, we see more Sandstone and Shale which is more impervious and causes

Although mixed housing provides vitality, high density developments are more impervious and increase urban run-o However, SCW mostly has rural land and the sole development of low density housing would be ine ective. Hence, observed the importance of having riparian bu ers large and smaller streams, to decrease contamination. An aquifer was implaced near the most unimpared stream. Housing locations were determined based on their accessibilty to potential jobs and other parts of the watershed.

My design intent is to invite the community to experience nature, through the use of materials and vegetation distinct to this area.
plan on solving seasonal issues of security, through the use of vegetation, a natural implementation which does not convey a sense of restriction to the community.
My goal was to create a whimsical experience, which got people directly through the site, whilst interacting with the space.

MASTER PLAN OF BARTRAM’S NORTH
Community Site Planning: Philadelphia, PA
I focused on the observation of the community and environmental conditions around the site. The main aim of this analysis is to get contextual information on the historical landmarks and people who have the most access. Is it my hope that my design would create a social hub which caters to the proposed development whilst representing the surrounding community.
Allow the floodplain to enter the site and creating accessible wetlands, for the community to interact with the river,
To link proposed future development with historical context and, through gardens and tree species. My main aim was to create safe spaces which are generally unaccessible to residents of this neighbourhood.
