Jacobs Ochoa Parks Site| Ruthrauff Basin | students:Jeremy Goodman and Jason Sciarrotta | professor: Courtney Crosson
The projects in this studio (ARCH 451b | studio Crosson) were produced in collaboration with the City of Tucson and Pima County Flood Control District. The purpose of the project is to test the potential for mitigating flooding and providing other benefits to neighborhoods in the Christmas Wash, Alamo Wash, Airport Wash, and Ruthrauff Basin watersheds through the design of a series of green infrastructure multi-use basins. Conceptual designs for these basins were prepared by student pairs.
The project is intended to provide generalized community input to the City and District as they evaluate options for multi-benefit flood mitigation projects to serve these communities.
