I am an undergraduate student at the University of Virginia. As an Urban and Environmental Planning major in the School of Architecture, I have studied the social, economic, political, and environmental forces that inform the built environment. Our urban future depends on the careful consideration of these factors. My background in the hospitality industry and urban planning lends itself to professional work that embraces innovation, encourages collaboration, and celebrates diversity.

This analysis investigates these issues in the context on Maré, implications they have on the health of citizens.

Mental Health

Mental health has gradually been accepted as an issue within Maré. Despite this acceptance, few institutions provide appropriate care for mental illness. With complications from violence, weapons, police, lack of greenspace, and minimal security, anxiety and fear proves common across Maré. The church has served as a form of community therapy. Its funding by the government, however, suggests it is a form of propaganda. Strong cultural cohesion across communities unites residents and provides mental peace.

In response to Maré’s housing shortage, real estate investment has shaped the urban fabric. After maximizing the available landscape, investors have reconfigured interior space to accommodate more residents with the tenement model (Santa et Silva, 2015). The average number of people per room in Maré is 1.9 people; this is nearly 3.5 times the average of countries recorded by OECD, with 0.58 people per room.

The patchwork-like streets in Maré are also overcrowded, affecting the quality of life of residents and access to emergency services. The narrow streets are often congested with automobiles and business stands. This, in addition to inadequate sidewalk space, makes it harder for pedestrians to move freely around the neighborhoods. Significantly, there is no formal infrastructure for runoff water; this means that the impervious streets fill with water and can become breeding grounds for mosquitos.

Many of the Favelas have poor road networks, as shown by the lack of official roads on the map. Therefore, it is estimated that around 40% of the trash in the favela does not get disposed of properly (Source, year), leading to further environmental degredation.

Poor Trash Collection Highway Pollution

Maré is bordered by two major highways: Avenida Brasil (left) and Linha Vermelha (right). Avenida Brasil is the busiest highway in Rio de Janeiro, carrying around 800,000 cars daily (Source, year). This contributes to air, sound and ground pollution in the favelas while also serving as a barrier to the areas to the west.

The location of the Alegria sewage plant directly adjacent to Mare puts the citizens in danger of groundwater contamination. This is due to a majority of the sewage not being treated correctly, and being dumped (Source, year).

Urban Heat Island Effect

Maré has a significant amount of impervious pavements within its favelas, resulting in a hotter and more humid environment. This worsens respiratory conditions and skin allergies, while also increasing the potential for mosquito-borne diseases.

Soccer fields commonly serve as public green space in the favelas.

Tenement model housing maximizes real estate availability, providing more housing for Maré’s residents. This overcrowding relies on common spaces, promoting the more active spread of disease and illness.

The infrastructure of Maré falls short of all citizens’ needs. In fact, its presence even degrades the livability around Maré between sewage treatment and highway clamor.

1 Foundations

As a 1st Year in UVa’s School of Architecture, undergraduate students develop a fundamental understanding of design. Skills acquired during two semesters of studio work carry into the students’ future design-oriented academic career. I spent my First Year studying remotely from Virginia Beach. This section is a collection of the physical and digital design projects I accomplished remotely as foundational work for my School of Architecture career.

Lessons in Making

As an undeclared Architecture student, first year School of Architecture students participate in an introductory design course under the instruction of Sanda Illiescu. The 3-credit course provides first-year students the opportunity to discover and apply design practices through a variety of mediums. Those include sketching, collaging, and modeling.

Fields //

Working with fields strengthens the understanding of relationships across microscopic design elements. This exercise introduced that interactive design system by cutting and gluing an 18”x24” paper sheet into organic forms.

Proun //

The “Proun” was coined by El Lissitzky referring to a “project for the affirmation of the new” (Yale). It is the coalescence of abstract pieces into a larger architectural mosaic. This assignment was performed using corrugated cardboard as an exploratory iteration and finer bristol board in a more refined model.

ARCH 1030 // Foundation Studio I

First year School of Architecture students participate in an introductory studio course under the head instruction of an architecture department faculty number. Each student participates in a smaller studio of around 10 students, 1 student instructor, and 1 assistant professor. The studio builds on the practices of design introduced in ARCH 1020 in more complex physical and digital models.

Building Mass //

The Building Mass project provided 1st Year architecture students an opportunity to experiment with the layering of physical materials and the relationship among repeated overlaps. The project required spatially considering the overlay of edges, surfaces, and masses, while introducing dimensional possibilities.

Planar Site //

The Planar Site model adapted the spatial understandings from the Building Mass project into Rhino. Rendering software enabled a more complex consideration of diverse physical elements, designing in both microscopic and macroscopic levels.

2 Urban Informality

Informal urbanism accounts for a significant portion of the global political economy. Its significance is reflected in the urban landscape of countries and cities around the world. As a Second Year student in Planning Design, I collaborated with other planners to investigate the consequences urban informality has on the lived experience of the built environment. Paired with a community engagement seminar, we explored the neighborhood of Maré in Rio de Janeiro in a semester studio.

How Does the Urban Fabric of Maré Influence the Health of Citizens?

Maré, Rio de Janeiro

An individual’s environment holds a profound impact on their health and well-being within their community. Housing, infrastructure, and green space identify major components of the Urban Fabric that influence our physical and mental health, according to research done on mosquito-borne diseases (Santos, 2020) and the Restorative City framework (Roe & McCay, 2021). The implications of the urban fabric on the health of citizens expose the omnipresence of environmental injustice among residents. This analysis investigates these issues in the context of Maré, Rio de Janeiro.

Context

Maré accounts for 10% of COVID-19 cases in Rio de Janeiro’s favelas

“There were many months without access to rights fundamental to well-being, such as contact with the nature and the City.”

“[Children and teenagers] had many emotional and psychosomatic symptoms.”

- Daniel Becker, Pediatrician (Redes da Maré, 2022)

Mental Health

Mental health has gradually been accepted as an issue within Maré. Despite this acceptance, few institutions provide appropriate care for mental illness. With complications from violence, weapons, police, lack of greenspace, and minimal security, anxiety and fear proves common across Maré. The church has served as a form of community therapy. Its funding by the government, however, suggests it is a form of propaganda. Strong cultural cohesion across communities unites residents and provides mental peace.

Penultimate Review

LACK OF INFRASTRUCTURE

Infrastructure

Poor Trash Collection

Many of the Favelas have poor road networks, as shown by the lack of official roads on the map. Therefore, it is estimated that around 40% of the trash in the favela does not get disposed of properly (Simões, Roza; 2018), leading to further environmental degredation.

Highway Pollution

Maré is bordered by two major highways: Avenida Brasil (left) and Linha Vermelha (right). Avenida Brasil is the busiest highway in Rio de Janeiro, carrying around 800,000 cars daily (Arujo, 2021). This contributes to air, sound and ground pollution in the favelas while also serving as a barrier to the areas to the west.

Untreated Sewage

The siting of the Alegria sewage plant directly adjacent to Maré puts its citizens in danger of groundwater contamination. This is due to a majority of the sewage not being treated correctly, and being dumped (Costa, 2007).

URBAN HEAT ISLANDS

Green Space

Urban Heat Island Effect

While Maré’s favelas appear surrounded by vegetation, there is a significant amount of impervious pavements within the favelas, resulting in a hotter and more humid environment where people actually live. Henrique, a local Maré resident, revealed that respirtory diseases and skin allergies are common.

While tenement model housing provides more affordable options for Maré’s residents, the consequential overcrowding promotes the spread of disease and illness.

The infrastructure of Maré falls short of all citizens’ needs. In fact, its presence even degrades the livability around Maré between sewage treatment and highway clamor.

Public green space is commonly soccer fields.

S.W.O.T. Analysis

How Does the Urban Fabric of Maré Influence the Health of Citizens?

Maré, Rio de Janeiro

Our previous analysis revealed the implications of Maré’s urban fabric on the quality of life of its residents. Building on Maré’s community agency, the support from necessary political, economic, and social actors will help catalyze improvements to the Favelas. The redesign of Maré’s urban fabric will diminish the environmental injustices that have burdened residents for decades as new projects begin to protagonize their built environment.

Mission

Cultivate and reimagine an urban fabric for Maré that promotes public well-being while respecting existing community culture. Upgraded infrastructure, redesigned housing typology, supplemented greenspace, strengthened healthcare services, and co-produced public data will improve public health and well-being for residents of Maré.

Maré will mitigate the spread of disease with a standardized infrastructure system that properly manages stormwater and waste by 2050.

Maré will provide adequate affordable housing for residents that reduces overcrowding and its harmful implications in minimally intrusive phases by 2050.

Residents of Maré will have access to greenspace throughout their neighborhood with public park infill development and green street initiatives by 2030.

Healthcare clinics in Maré will effectively serve all patients with improved access and inclusion of mental health services to promote complete well-being by 2030.

Maré will empower community members to speak and act on issues within their neighborhood by establishing platforms for individual and community agency by 2025.

3 University of Virginia: Equitable Mobility

This is my final project from PLAN 2111: GIS for Planners. Tasked with choosing any topic to demonstrate our GIS skills, I mapped the impact construction has on pedestrian mobility at the University of Virginia. I worked with a variety of geospatial data in ArcGIS, which I then visualized using Rhino and Adobe Illustrator.

Equitable Mobility at the University of Virginia

The University of Virginia takes pride in its stance as among the best public institutions in the world. Its leadership in subjects such as health, public policy, business, and more have earned “Jefferson’s University” the esteem it touts. Located in the humble suburb of Charlottesville, VA, UVa “Grounds” provides the academic atmosphere for cultivating successful students. The Academical Village, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, centers the University across the Piedmont’s rolling hills and among its deciduous forests. The University of Virginia’s Grounds shape the educational experience of students from around the world, but current students are forced to adapt to a disrupted landscape.

Student Experience

The built environment must adapt to the consistently evolving demands of its users. The academic scene requires even more frequent transformations to its structural landscape to ensure it provides an adequate setting for enhancing student excellence. The University of Virginia seeks to serve its students with prime facilities, but the journey of construction required to achieve these results takes a toll on the current student body. UVa’s construction sites have obtained infamy among “Hoos”. Between obstructed sidewalks and frequent detours, UVa adds stress to pedestrian safety and challenges to accessibility. This analysis seeks to expose the impact construction across UVa has had on students’ mobility, access, and safety traversing Grounds.

Pedestrian Accessibility

Sidewalk closures expose pedestrians across Grounds to added risks in their commute. Construction reroutes pedestrians across busy streets often with insufficient notice to drivers to watch out for varieties in crossing pattern increasing the potential of an accident. The associated dangers with walking interfere with students’ right to multimodal mobility forcing them to rely on motorized transportation.

Travel Context

With the overwhelming majority of commuters favoring the private automobile’s flexibility, efficiency, and safety, infrastructure reflects those preferences, especially at UVa. Pedestrians suffer a disparate impact from construction zones on Grounds. Sidewalks are frequently the first to be closed, rerouting people across busy streets and through a maze of detours. As indicated in statements from UVa students, these changes in walkway availability are hardly communicated until arrival and cause unnecessary delays and heightened risk of fatal accidents.

1 out of 3 commuters avoid walking because they feel unsafe.

(University of Virginia Center for Survey Research, 2017)

What Students Have to Say

It seems like I am constantly being surprised by new construction and detours that I have to take, which really impact my ability to get places on time.

Sarah L, 2nd Year

It seems like I am constantly being surprised by new construction. The construction has made walking slightly less pleasant but still almost completely accessible, and it has made driving much more difficult.

Dominic R, 2nd Year

It cuts off a lot of shortcuts and I feel uninformed about most of what’s going on so it’s hard to prepare in advance (like leaving earlier, finding a new route, etc.).

Patrick R, 1st Year

Walkways

Closed Walkways

Construction Zones

Mapping Pedestrian Accessibility

As indicated by the student accounts, the construction around Grounds has forced students to adapt to new routes on-the-fly to reach their desired destinations. The frequency of walkway closures limits students’ ability to fully anticipate the variety of detours they should expect.

Why include ADT and Topographic maps?

The impact of walkway closures extends past the need for pedestrians to find alternative routes. Average Daily Traffic (ADT) and Topographic (Topo) maps contextualize the deeper implications of these closures on safety and accessibility. ADT informs the potential of an accident at street crossings. By providing data on the average traffic at some of these major intersections and streets, it gives context to the potential of an accident, based on the average amount of cars present. Topo maps inform the accessibility of alternate routes for those with more limited mobility. While sidewalk closures may add additional time to the routes of many, those who are injured or physically disabled face greater barriers when alternate routes force them through steep slopes to reach their destination.

SIDEWALK CLOSED

The remaining section highlights popular regions around Grounds facing not only significant construction proejcts, but also heavy traffic from all forms of mobility. This analysis seeks not to provide a comprehensive account of all current projects; rather, this section will see how a variety of walkway-closure contexts inform pedestrian accessibility.

Key

The key listed below appllies to all the following maps.

Emmet St + Ivy Rd

The Emmet St and Ivy Rd intersection is among the most traversed Charlottesville junctions going through UVa Grounds. As a meeting point for North Grounds, Central Grounds, Barracks Shopping Center, and I-29, this intersection is a popularly travelled intersection for all modes of mobility. Construction on 3 out of 4 corners to this intersection has reduced pedestrian mobility, forcing walkers across streets when unnecessary to reach their final destination, increasing the risk of an accident with frequent crossing. Dilapidated street crossings further reduce safety.

Present Experience

McCormick Rd + Dell Pond

Surrounded by the Bookstore, Newcomb Hall, Memorial Gymnasium, and two of the busiest bus stops on Grounds, students and faculty traverse this area frequently. A well-trafficked road as well, pedestrians–even cyclists–increase their chances of an accident. The inclusion of road barriers and crossing lights help improve pedestrian safety. They even include a map to help navigate the detours.

Navigating the Future of UVa

Year after year, the University of Virginia continues to push out leaders of the future in an array of fields. Those students face the daily challenge of navigation in a complex university typology. Construction is necessary in order to provide facilities that adapt to a rapidly advancing academia. The construction scene has gained significant infamy among the student body as orange-and-white barriers reach near omnipresence. Frequent sidewalk closures and detours raise concern over pedestrian mobility and equitable access. As the university pursues a variety of projects, commuters of the University of Virginia hope they will continue to consider the various contexts affecting safety and multimodal accessibility.
