INTRODUCTION FINAL FRAMEWORK

A Second look mountain view reimagined

But we are not taught that places are established and exist under different standards.

Some places are young and easy to define but others are rooted in challenge and complicated histories. Mountain View is a unique community bound by the Bosque and rich history of industry, agriculture, ur-

ban settlement and dispute. The boundary along 2nd Street marks the division within the community and its sense of place. It also marks a challenge to rethink the parameters of economy, ecology and welfare and reconcile the disparities between them.

Our assignment was simple. Redesign 2nd Street. But along the way we realized that Mountain View holds much more meaning and purpose. This neighborhood has the potential to face its challenges through innovative, elegant design and serve as an example of a beautiful reconciliation. The master plan and specific site designs presented in this book are just the beginning.

ANALYSIS

Our perception of the landscape is intimate, tenuous and unfixed. We learn that variations in climate, geography, time and custom shape people’s relationship with the landscape and if we are to truly grasp a sense of place we must flesh out these differences. In the classroom we are taught to develop a sensitivity to the land that will reveal a community’s unique sense of place because without this a garden is just a garden. The success of any designer is defined not by the beauty of her or his design but the sense of place it creates.

Prince Acres

FINAL FRAMEWORK

Prince Road is an important street for Mountain View residents who live on the East side of 2nd Street. It is the most direct and safe way to get to the Mountain View Community Center. On the SE corner of Prince Road and Rio Bravo Blvd, is a large 46 acre vacant and undeveloped site for sale. This site is zoned as M-2, which may lead to a future large industry business if not intervened.

Because this community is mainly surrounded by industry, I propose an Urban Agricultural Development on this site to serve as a relief site for existing residents.

SOLUTIONS

This development would mainly be a mixed use, site with recreational parks and a jewel center piece for a Farmers Market along with many retail stores, restaurants and offices and residential mixed in.

SCHEMATIC FRAMEWORKS

The purpose of this development is to wrap around the Rio Bravo Blvd already developing street that is the main entrance to the proposed Transit Oriented Development north of Rio Bravo.

the overarching goal of this design is to increase access to open space, parks, outdoor recreation, and gardens for the residents of Mountain view. By adding access point to the Bosque, increasing the amount of parks and connecting open space areas throughout Mountain view with recreation trails, all residents will benefit from increased access to open natural space, parks and gardens.

4. connect commuter bike trails to areas outside the immediate neighborhood.

5. help to maintain and reclaim the rural nature of Mountain view.

6. Promote healthy lifestyles and environmental education opportunities.

7. Mitigate effects of pollution by preserving and increasing green space.

goals 1. increase access to the Bosque, so that the nearby community can take full advantage of this asset within their neighborhood.

2. Provide more open space and parks of various types including community gardens, play grounds, recreation facilities, and natural open spaces for exploration and observation.

3. connect open spaces, parks and gardens through a series of paths and recreation trails for horses, bikes and pedestrians.

“Open space allows kids to imagine beyond their circumstances; to move and breath; sense of freedom and possibility and anchor into the real rhythms of life�

redefined lines | Green line corridor

FINAL FRAMEWORK

Second Street is defined by both neighborhood and industry. The lines of this relationship are marked, or inscribed, in the land by the railroad and water channels. These defining lines are linked with the transport of people, goods, and resources. Historically they have lived side by side, one never without the other.

SOLUTIONS

Second Street is both a story of history and passage, and a current metaphor for needed change between society and industry. Redefining the corridor’s function gives rise to a new form, a new spatial hierarchy that can meet the demands and desires of the current century.

SCHEMATIC FRAMEWORKS

A re-definition of environmental space results in a site specific street design that accounts for the unique sense of place while responding to the immediate problems of pollution and noise. The generous thirtyfive foot right of way between Second Street and the rail makes it possible to propose it to begin to function

DPAC STUDIO SPRING 2012

more as a linear park, a “green line” extending north and south and connecting two historical neighborhoods.

This linear park will also function as a filter between industry and residences. “Shields” of clustered native planting’s are strategically staggered to catch air bourne dust and particles generated from neighboring industry. Rerouting truck traffic to a proposed relief route achieves traffic calming and inscribes a new line into the historical landscape; a re-defined line symbolizing safe passage, health, and revitalization for the community.

It benefits from fewer children having to cross the street, but depth is lost from green buffer space. option_3 has the majority of pedestrian/student access loaded to the east of the road. this allows for a substantial green buffer space as well as a larger path which is better suited to a “walking school bus strategy”

FINAl FRAMEWORk

the Mountain view national urban wildlife refuge will be New Mexico’s first urban national wildlife refuge. the 570 acres of land will foster wildlife along the rio grande and provide urban ecological and agricultural education within the community.

SOlUTIONS

through the design we are purposing a refuge that serves these functions and creates a place of refuge for all. the trust for Public land, in partnership with the us fish and wildlife service and Bernalillo county is at work securing the land and creating a vision for wildlife. our focus is to give the Mountain view neighborhood association a vision for the benefits to the urban community.

SChEMATIC FRAMEWORkS

the urban wildlife refuge will serve the local community through education and recreation. it is designed to provide many educational opportunities showing the history of the place and teaching children the value of ecology and agriculture. the community will also benefit from the refuge as a place for recreation such as hiking and bird watching.

ANAlYSIS 26

DPAC STUDIO SPRING 2012

the urban wildlife refuge will also serve as a local habitat corridor and extension of new Mexico’s sand hill crane flyway. It is designed to support a range of habitats and wildlife. a vision for the park’s ecological future is modeled from the Bosque del apache’s biological management plan. it is designed to slowly replace invasive species with cottonwoods, native willows and grasses, which will create three distinct habitat types within the refuge. the riparian forest, scrub and meadow habitats will provide the necessary vegetation, spatial complexity and water quality to support a diverse wildlife community and restore this reach of the rio grande. in addition to habitat restoration, the urban wildlife refuge will establish a permanent research facility on site to monitor restoration efforts and develop an adaptive management plan. this facility will be available to student research and non-profit groups interested in riparian restoration.

At a community meeting, community members were dived into five groups. In groups they were then asked to place stars on a map locating; where they live; where they hang out, or favorite place; where the heart of the community is; what places they avoid and where the events in the community are. Also, community members traced their daily routes with marker on the map. This information was then compiled into one large map. In response to the question, “Where is the heart of your community?”, Many stars were placed on the same location. These stars were counted and are displayed with one star. The more stars a particular location had the larger it is displayed here. Likewise, popular routes are shown with thicker lines to indicate more common routes.

AGRICUlTURE + VACANT lAND

There is a significant amount of open space in Mountain View, which is mostly comprised of the Rio Grande State Park, agricultural land and vacant properties. Of the total 5,224 acres in Mountain View, 22% (1,150 acres) is agricultural, and 43% (2,231 acres) is vacant land. Although Mountain View comprises only 4% of Bernalillo County, the neighborhood accounts for 42% of agricultural land and 8% of vacant land within the County.

A total of 37.3 miles of waterways pass through Mountain View. These include irrigation laterals and canals, stormwater drains, and floodways. There are also 2.3 miles of irrigation laterals and canals which have been abandoned, although their rights-of-way remain intact.

Mountain View 2nd Street Study

A Study by the University of New Mexico Design + Planning Assistance Center DPAC

The map shows three environmental health hotspots. These are comprised of scrap car businesses with associated petroleum products and other hazardous fluids; petroleate storage facilities which have leaked in the past; manufacturing operations which contribute to suspended particulates, and facilities which manufacture pesticides and other toxic chemicals. All of these businesses have contributed to soil, water and air contamination within the neighborhood.

ECONOMY + INDUSTRY

hANNA ThOMPSON, MlA [ The majority of industry and manufacturing in Mountain View is located east of 2nd Street ]

Product manufacturing, storage, distribtution and retail are scattered throughout the neighborhood. A focused economy, such as green techonology, could streamline these processes and establish competitive advantage.

The proposed TOD sector plan includes retail and business development. This could potentially attract local business investment and interest in Mountain View. The plan may also increase traffic and density.

Employment

This map shows the employment numbers for Mountain View. Employment is broken down into three types, Basic, Service, and Retail, and is illustrated in the pie shaped diagrams. These indicate that majority of employment types are Basic and Service with very little Retail. Employment compared to population is illustrated in the bar graphs. These graphs show an overall extreme condition in either population or employment in most geographic areas. The inset map is a comparison of Mountain View and the Journal Center in the amount of Basic employment found in each. Mountain View accounts for 1.4% of Bernallio County overall employment and 3.7% of Bernallio County Basic employment base.

007

Indira kaini, MLA [ The total area of developed parks in Mountain View is below the national average ]

This map shows parks and open space within the Mountain View neighborhood. Ambassador Edward L. Romero Park and Mountain View Community Park are the only two parks that serve a population of approximately 4,231. The charts below provide comparisons of parks and open space between Bernalillo County, the City of Albuquerque and Mountain View. The data show that Mountain View has the highest percentage of open space in the county because of the adjacent Bosque and the proposed wildlife refuge. However, if one considers only developed parks, which total 9.5 acres the number of acres of open space per one thousand people falls below the national average. According to The National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA), the US national average is five acres per one thousand people.

kEVIN hARRIS, MARCh [ Intersections at Prosperity and Mtn. View Elementary lack turn lanes which creates congestion ]

A Study by the University of New Mexico Design + Planning Assistance Center DPAC

The map shows the main road classifications of the Mountain View community as well as noted problem areas. Intersections at Prosperity and 2nd St. and Mountain View Elemntary School and 2nd St. lack turn lanes which reesults in increased congestion and dangerous driving conditions. The intersection at Rio Bravo and 2nd St. suffers from traffic and poor light timing as well as a lack of necessary turn signals. Lack of pedestrian/bike access makes conditions along 2nd St. dangerous for community members, particularly in the region between Joy Junction and the existing bus stop.
