These figure-ground diagrams allow the viewer to be able to see the number of buildings compared to the amount of open space more easily. Looking at Columbia-Tusculum’s 3-D figure ground diagram of the major business district (Top right) most of the buildings are widely spread out.

16 After we were through with our analysis of the Columbia Tusculum business district we eventually were able to identify key problems in the area and then propose a new urban design for the solutions. When analyzing Columbia-Tusculum, some of the main problems include cars dominating the area and businesses promoting a drive-in drive-out approach. Although there are plenty of sidewalks, there is no incentive, such as activities or attractions, for people to walk around the area. There is a problem of wasted space that includes too many parking lots and vacancies. The businesses are spread out, giving the district no sense of connectivity.

In my Site Planning and Design Studio, Fall 2012, my group including Cassandra Chittum and Jeffry Gould, were asked to analyze Mount Airy’s surrounding areas. Mount Airy is located in North Western Cincinnati and is also Cincinnati’s largest park. Areas we focused on included transportation (road circulation, sidewalks, bus routes), and the different housing prices and conditions surrounding Mount Airy. Later on in the semester we will be proposing our ideas for development and urban design in the area.
