Abstract

This project focuses on reclaiming an existing park-and-ride and surrounding vacant lands in the Energy Corridor District of Houston, Texas, USA to create a multi-functional transit hub and livable community. The design creates a comprehensive master plan with two areas of concentration. A system-oriented design approach is applied to promote walkability and respond to environmental challenges.
