A Multi-Way Boulevard for Redmond, Oregon
(University of Oregon, 2015) Stoecklein, Kelly; Fan, Yue; Ribe, Rob; Krueger, Jeff
The City of Redmond wants to improve U.S. 97, the main north-south corridor used heavily by through traffic, regional freight traffic, and local traffic. The city partnered with the University of Oregon’s Sustainable City Year Program and an upper-level planning studio of undergraduate and graduate landscape architecture students to explore possible improvements of the corridor in conjunction with the creation of a multi-way boulevard. This report documents the studio’s process, analysis, designs, and recommendations. The studio process included site visits, interviews, code review, design charrettes, seminars, and critiques. Students split into six groups and each group did an in-depth study on one extended site on one side of the highway. Each student then produced an individual plan for his or her assigned area.
