[ OBSERVATION ]
[ CURRENT ANALYSIS ]
Sidewalk is narrow 5 traffic lines on the street in front of hotel are wide
The views into the hotel are restricted by limited numbers of light infrastructure at night time
Focus view is weak The narrow wall along the hotel with the limited sightlines into the hotel creates a sense of poor security for most drivers,especially at night .

The project site is located in the heart of Downtown Fort Worth. Having a good connection with the Water Garden and unlimited access to highway I30, gravitates multiple locals and tourist to this specific area.

[ VISION ]
A Woodland Night
My inspiration is the sound of the water fall from the water garden. This reminds me of a song named Woodland Night,when you experence it in a sensitive way ,you hear the sound from the animals ,water ,wind ,and even the leaves. The forest is not calm, it is very living and active. It become music. I like to use the water sound to make the entrance space more dynamic.

THE MLK STATION TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT

DALLAS,TEXAS
The retail within one block encourage high density use ,pedestrian friendly activity nodes near the stations.
Design Statement
Existing Land Use and Zoning Opportunity The vacant land within 1/4 mile has redevelopment opportunities for future land use as a transition zone between the station areas and surrounding residential neighbourhood. The majority of multiple family within .5mile provides the density of population which opens up the possibility for MLK station district development , it also provides the chance for future mixed residential .
T he MLK TOD project is a combining extesive research, public
involvement and design to address the relationship between MLK station,neighbourhood and Fair Park in order to improve life quality in the TOD district,Dallas. In this context, a design approach emphasis on the station's central role in community. It will also help to create station identity that will add value to surrounding parcels. Keeping the existing African American culture symbol in the station will protect unique characteristics of the place. Closing the traffic on track street,creating walking only plaza,will improve and provide a friendly walking environment.

scale=1:48000
Pedestrian friendly ground floor uses (e.g. Office,Retail ,Parks ,Institudes) should be encouraged within the 0.5 mile station area.
High ridership volumes from the Transportation around this station provide an opportunity for commuters and visitors come to the site.
The vacant land within 1/4 mile has redevelopment opportunity for future land use as a transition zone between the station areas and surrounding residential neighbourhood.
The park within the walkable distance provides the opportunity of open green space.

The analysis also found that there are vacancies along the main arterial from block. to block
Half of institutes and facilities ,such as churchs,schools,parks are cluster in the 0.5 mile walkable distance .along the major arteries, the other half of them throughout the entire 1 mile radius area , however,there is a need of facilities in the residential community ,especially southwest region.

Unused and overgrown space next to the sidewalk.
The analysis also found that there are vacancies along the main arterial from block. to block
Sidewalk is narrow. Recreation space is little in the community. The entrance of the station is poor. The existing street environment within the district is dominated by heavy traffic, and a lack of landscaping and pedestrian amenities.
The majority of multiple family within .5mile provides the density of population which opens up the possibility for station development.it also the provides the chance for future mixed residential .
There are enough existing surface parking lots near Martin Luther King Blvd and Grand Ave which is potentially attracting a large percentage of daily commuters to live, work or shop around this station.
