These illustrations (proposed)are located in the West End of downtown Cincinnati. The neigh-borhood was, at one time, a place of commerce but has receded since. The graphics as shown dis-play the possibilities for develop-ment and investment by stake-holders within the community.

The study area for this studio was in Amberley Village, Ohio. To the left is a 40 ft. step garden, detailed soils map above, and a preliminary site plan on the previous page. This project was completed in 12-man teams in conjuntion with city officials.

Neighborhood/District Studio

The premise for these illustrations (proposed) is urban revitalization. Above is a site plan, to the top left is an entrance from annex parking, and the bottom left and next page spotlight the newly walkable shopping/restaurant district.

Niehoff Urban Studio: Comp./Region

These graphics were part of the City of Covington Center City Action Plan. Adaptive reuse with an emphasis on esplanade/boulevards was the aim for this project. Reconaissance showed large geographic features that provide a challenge to any development in the area.8 9

The focus of this studio was to con-vert an abandoned railway into a bi-cycle/pedestrian corridor connecting the east side of Cincinnati to the CBD/downtown area. Connections were made be-tween Armleder Park, Red Bank Business Area, Mariemont and the proposed transit hub site. In additon, the civil enginners assigned to Group 5 & 6 came up with grade calcula-tions for connecting trails in Ault Park. The trail, named Wasson Way Trail, does not provide for many con-nections due to the steep grade of the surrounding hills. The connection shown (left) traverses forty ft. from bridge to valley floor and stops at just shy of 1,200 ft. long.

Transportation PlanningThis graphic is part of the Glendale-Milford Rd. Corridor Study. the purpose of this proposed graphic is to represent the footprint of a roun-a-bout if the community decides to have one installed to alleviate the peak hour travel congestion.
