SITE ANALYSIS FOR ARNITY PARK PROGRAMS USED: AutoCad, Illustrator, & Photoshop
There are not a lot of green spaces surrounding the site. Trash and graffiti are filling up the abandoned dark areas. PIDCC proposed design takes over the land and not provide a big space for the surrounding community. LAND USE
Analysis shows how our site is dominated by infrastructure with the lack of green space.

PROGRAM USED: AutoCad, Photoshop, Illustrator
TO WANDER WITHIN
This is a place where the community can gather and enjoy the beautiful view of the Schuylkill river. To bring people together by revitalizing the abandoned dark corners of the site and create artistic entrance to lead people to the plaza where they can gather and be one. Philadelphia is filled with fun and colorful murals which can be done on the site.
