As testing plots are developed, selected roads are closed for vehicles but open for pedestrians. Some elevated roads are used in more delicate conditions for not interfering with the landscape.

On the one hand, it’s analytical and organizational, and on the other hand, you’re the poet craftsman. But at the end of the day, you’re designing for people, not an art book. - James Corner

WINTER SCENE OF HELL’S HALF ACRE, THE SITE INVESTIGATED BY THE SOLOMON FOUNDATION AS PART OF ITS “GREENOUGH GREENWAY” PROJECT.

HELLS HALF ACRE: COMPOSITING A SPATIAL CHRONOLOGY

1873

THE SOLOMON FOUNDATION URBAN ECOLOGY SEMINAR, 2014 HELLS HALF ACRE | CAMBRIDGE, USA SUPERVISORS HERB NOLAN, PETER DEL TREDICI

Hells Half Acre has been intimately involved in the ecological,

infrastructural, and cultural changes that have transformed the city of

1948

Cambridge and the Charles River Basin over the past 150 years. Despite its current neglect, it is distinct as the last remaining fragment of the tidal wetland that once covered the entire lower Charles River Basin, and as such, is a significant urban wild providing a shelter for waterbirds and fish.

In response to the proposed intervention to the site as part of

the narrowing of Greenough Drive, and to support an ecologically and culturally sensitive intervention, the author has spatially documented site’s topographic, hydrological, and vegetational changes that constitute the chronology of Hell’s Half Acre.

This spatial documentation consists of two parts: first, a time

series of figure ground maps, intended to complement the existing descriptive knowledge of the site’s history; second, a tree coring study investigating the dates when contingents of tree species became established on the site.
