    In Providence, the relocation of Interstate 195 has opened approximately 17 acres for development. The new territory extends across both sides of the Providence River and crosses three diverse neighborhoods - including the heart of the burgeoning Jewelry District. The Providence Comprehensive Plan has adopted cityWALK, a new linear landscape intervention that will connect existing neighborhoods and stimulate new public activities around academic institutions and private developments.

    As part of a larger network from Roger Williams Park to India Point Park the corridor left behind by the relocation of I-195 serves as a space of exploration for the potential of cityWALK. By thinking well about the immense opportunity that this space affords the city of Providence, we can imagine cityWALK as much more than a space of walking. It can be a space of connection, art, life, ecology, growth, events and much more. Thirteen students from Penn States department of Landscape Architecture, under the guidance of Ron Henderson and Ray Gastil, began to breath life into these opportunities and snapshots of their work follow.

    cityEQUALITY

    Upper South Providence remains physically and socioeconomically segregated from several adjacent neighborhoods.With the recent investments of multiple millions of dollars by the city into the connections between neighborhoods such as Fox Point, College Hill and Downtown there is significant base for a new pedestrian bridge that will create connectivity and possibility for social and economic gowth.

    cityBEATUIFUL

    Reviving the aesthetic quality of daily experience through the heart of downtown Providence has never been so possible as it is today. Through an undulating ground plane, a flowing vegetal order and simple material pallet this project explores the ability of cityWALK to create a unique, inspirational, artistic experience in an otherwise hard, urban environment.

    cityEVENTS

    Through a method of measuring the cultural vitality of Providence by mapping the current events held throughout the year, this project highlights the ability of this new urban corridor to provide the city with space for many new or reimagined public events and activities. Along with the site specific exploration shown here many matrices of the cities events were produced and are available in the appendix.

    cityGROWTH

    Activating space through the injection of program will increase the use and thus the value of the place. By applying program before development a continual feedback between the desires of people and the climate of development will benefit both the economic and social setting of the city. This would ensure that cityWALK would be a populated, culturally vital corridor full of activity and new development.

    Raised Intersection

    This segment of the proposed stormwater systemcollects rainwater runoff from the surroundinglandscape, including rooftops. The connected system utilizes the water for plant irrigation. If a surplus of runoff is present, a subsurface perforated pipe sends the excess water into the Brown University Research Facilitys stormwater system.

    This segment of the proposed stormwater system utilizes the water it receives from the surrounding landscape and the streetscapeo overflow to irrigate its landscape.Water not absorbed by the vegetation enters a holding cistern that, via a series of pumps, irrigates the landscape as needed and provides the Brown University Research building with greywater for toilets.

    The proposed vegetation for this portion of the stormwater system, represented by the double-lined hatch, is a mixture of sweet fern (Comptonia peregrina), Tussock sedge (Carexstricta), and cardinal flower (Lobelia cardinalis).The trees species consist of red maple (Acerrubrum) and serviceberry (Amelanchier arborea).This collection of local, native species were chosen because of their proximity to site and their suitability to damp conditions.

    Thhhhhhe final segment ooooof the proposed stormwatersyyyyyystem, like the othhhhher portions of the system, coooollects stormwaaaaaterrrr from the surrounding laaaaandscape, includdddinggggg the rooftops. This section is aaaaaan emergency ovvvvverfffflllow for the rest of the system and the stormwatttter ttttthat is not utilized by the vegetation entersssss theeeee existing waterways.

    cityINFILTRATE

    Due to the location of the I-195 corridor being part of a major stormwater swale in the city, the opportunity to capture, filter and educate about stormwater and sustainable practices must be addressed. By capitalizing on private ownership of spaces along the corridor to catalyze and support cityWALK, we can ensure the success of the walk as a connective fabric that is socially, economically and ecologically responsive.

    The underground cistern provides adjacent buildings with greywater and irrigates the

    systems plantings as needed.

    The teak decking provides pedestrians with access to the north and south sections of the

    courtyard. It also leads to greater connections within Providences core.

    The vegetation in this area is representative of common riparian species in Rhode Island and provides an aesthetically pleasing experience

    from both the ground level as well as the Brown University Research Facility.

    Perforated pipe transports stormwater not used by vegetation to underground cistern.

    This metal grate is a custom piece that covers thetroughs that collect the stormwater from the streets

    and rooftops; allowing for uninterupted foot trafficwhile providing a visual que to the underlying

    stormwater system.

    The angled curb provides a backstop for the stormwater, increasing the total amount of

    water captured.

    Seating along cityWALK is provided by these two-sided benches. The 12 x 3 seating platform

    allows for a multitude of seating options.

    cityKNOT

    Fragmented portions of universities are dispersed throughout Providence resulting in a broken campus experience. This project ties together two portions of Brown Universities campus utilyzing a collegiate material language and the space left behind by the relocation of I-195. By looking to the corridor as an asset for reconnecting and reinvigorating the city, countless connective interventions can be imagined.

    cityIDENTITY

    This project aims to utilize the existing language of the Providence River waterfront as well as the newly awarded bridge design to extend this space down along the inlet and back into the city. This approach will allow people to interect with the water as well as build a bridge between the tranquil natural setting on the river and the urban Jewelry District and thus giving the juxtaposed conglomorate of spaces a uniform identity.

    cityECOLOGY

    Drawing connections to Providences strong industrial and environmental past, this project focusses on the reestablishment of a historic finger pier canal as a protected aquatic ecosystem. This canal system would open opportunites for people to reconnect with water didactically as well as physically through various forms of recreation. CityWALK would thus not only strengthen connectivity in the city but between people and nature.

    PRECEDENTS

    From Las Ramblas in Barcelona to the Highline in New York City, linear corridors have been proven to have the power to transform cities. These parkways and promenades have been able to define cities, bringing life and culture to every reach of the urban fabric. They become the organizing spine for future development, the first stop for tourists and the piece that ties entire cities together. Providence has the unique opportunity to reimagine how they are defined, to dream of the vast potential of their city and how cityWALK can be the driving factor in this transformation.
