Sulphur Dell was once a thriving entertainment district and a hub of industry. now severed the neighborhoods around it. It is re-imagined as Delltown, a vibrant and cohesive community connecting the action of downtown to the residential, walk ability of Germantown. At the heart of Delltown is the Dell, encouraging recreation, leisure and providing the stormwater management and flood capacity critical to keeping Delltown safe and dry.

Currently, when it floods the water goes wherever it wants to. Everyone is at risk of harm

When the Cumberland River breaches it banks, it spreads out just like juice on a countertop, covering the entire neighborhood
A reimagined levy system, directs the water away from homes and husinesses. The Dell & Stream back restoration project creates and additional 1000 linear feet of shoreline to accomodate floodwaters!

A single level of sub-grade parking gives people a place to put their cars and for water to go during 500-year storm events.
Reducing hardscape and increasing infiltratio locations means that less water is running on t streets and causing a flood of problems in th neighborhood!

Impermeable rooftops are replaced with green roofs that absorb and slow the flow of water, proposed green roofs account for 188,000 square feet of new permeable surface.

In severe storms, water flows from Hope Gardens and Capital Hill into Sulpher Dell. It collects creating huge safety and mobility challenges.

Northwest of Downtown Houston: A neglected site along Buffalo Bayou is reimagined providing transit services and basic necessities to rapidly growing, adjacent neighborhoods. S.P.U.R. is the missing link. Radiating outwards to connect downtown with adjacent districts, it provides a unique place along the Bayou where housing, entertainment, public space and employment thrive for a range of demographics.

FRAME
BROWNFIELD • Springfield, OR (1) of 3 on Student Team Advisor: Irene G. Curulli An under utilized industrial site near downtown Springfield, OR. FRAME holds the memory of past economy and connects them with the potential of Springfield’s future. In the southern most portion of the site FRAME tells the story of productivity. Timber and agriculture once generated the lion’s share of revenue for the city. Historically productive landscapes are reintroduced in the public spaces and their products are harvested to power new economies, green energy, research, small-scale craftsmanship and the brewing culture of Oregon. These new programs support financial vitality and create a larger draw for the rest of Springfield

Lasserre, the existing building, is to small, outdated and isolated from the rest of campus. The UBC Ecotone is a place between places. It is a locus of innovative design energy inviting to the entire campus. It blends and connects places, knowledge, and people with one another to create a more vibrant , resilient and dynamic learning environment.

designBridge is a student organization committed to providing design and construction services to groups and individuals that would otherwise not be able to afford them. Initially the client asked for a shading devise to help cool their second story offices. The designBridge team identified a need not only for shading but a safer and more welcoming outdoor transition space. The solution provides a functional gathering space, a well defined entry path and honors the memory of loved ones who have been lost to HIV/AIDS

Ta R o K i T METROPOLIS Next Generation Competition (LEADER) of 2 on Student Team Advisor: Roxi Thoren Contaminated water is a problem for over 50% of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s population. In of these locations housing security is also threatened due to natural disaster. TARO Kit is a catalyst, a kit of parts, and a response to the challenge of improving water quality globally. It offers a versatile housing solution for displaced or impoverished people that cleans water through phyto and bioremediation. It can be deployed anywhere a shipping container can go and a wetland can grow.

WETLAND BEDS:
SHIP & TARO kit arrives ready (with a little construction) to be housing, habitat and an estuarine cleanser
OYSTER BEDS:
CLEAN PHASE 1 First OYSTERS filter out particulate matter from the water. These oysters cannot be eaten due to heavy metal accumulation, however the toxins can be eliminiated through incineration . Oysters are also reef building animals, meaning that these beds will clean water as well as provide habitat for native aquatic animals.
CLEAN PHASE 2 Second, WETLAND BEDS, absorb excess nuterients produced as a result of agricultural runoff, industrial practices, and human waste. Heavy metals and PCBs not filtered by the oysters will also be absorbed by the wetland plants. As the TARO kit begins to propagate along the shore it will create a network of floating, constructed wetlands that will increase flood capacity, improve water quality and connect fragmented coastal habitats.
