PORTSMOUTH FLOOD WALL PROMENADE The floodwall promenade looked at connecting the city of Portsmouth, OH to the riverfront through the city’s floodwall. Doing this while maintaining existing murals on the wall was an integral design consideration. Pathways, recreation, and a pedestrian bridge highlight what would become an interesting project.
