Project Reflection

• A Common Urban Constraint- Arterial Road: It is one of the biggest obstacles to shaping a walkable city. It is often difficult to detect in the large and medium scale analysis, affecting actual development decisions and evaluations. Therefore, the field survey by urban designers is critical.

• Edge effects: The urban edge is an easily overlooked but crucial element, especially in TOD. It is not only a medium for building connections with surrounding areas, but also the key to expanding the scope of TOD walking and development.

• Urban Vitality and Interface: The urban interface is an essential and complex concept, which is affected by many factors, such as publicness, height difference, sunlight, safety, sky view, and so on. Therefore, ignoring any of these potential factors may lead to a depressed urban environment.
