RIVER AS A VALUABLE RESOURCE Flowing across the whole city, the Scioto River is like an artery, connecting different parts of the city together and also becomes the bound between human and their surroundings. Therefore, it provides valuable opportunities for people to explore the city from the perspective from the river, enabling people to experience both the urban and natural landscape, observe both the history and development of the city in a single journey.

THE LEVEE To protect people from flood, the levee was built. However, the connection between the river and people is also broken. It becomes a barrier, block out the great scenery and prevent people from getting close to the river.
