From Memphis 3.0 to Site–Specific Design Plans
Spring 2022 Site Planning class covered a lot of territory, from the bigger picture of the Memphis 3.0 comprehensive plan to the planning and design of a specific site—from the typology of an anchor to zoning, and methodologies of site assessment, toward the design and plan of a sustainable neighborhood. Careful readings of the comprehensive plan identified potential catalytic site locations that the comprehensive plan overlooked, and thereby suggested anchor-like design plans. Sample images of site design plans are shown.
