1 LAR 694T: Landscape Architecture Design Instructor: Allan W. Shearer This core sequence studio presents issues, methods, and theories central to the representation, planning, and design of large-scale landscapes. Its topic for 2010 was the design of a new district along Waller Creek in downtown Austin. In 2014, a new flood control tunnel will become operational and allow development on 26 acres that are currently in the delimited 100-year floodplain. Following goals established by the Waller Creek Citizens Advisory Committee, teams of students were asked to: engage the creek, improve access, minimize exclusionary uses, encourage redevelopment, protect and enhance the environment, and mitigate sound disturbance. The site is expected to become the object of a national design competition in 2011.

PATH USE day mixed underutilized SEASONAL USE spring summer-fall all year PEDESTRIAN HOTSPOTS Lack of nighttime use and an underutilized/unusable path result in an extreme lack in diversity of use in the area from 5th Street to just south of Cesar Chavez Street. The frequent underutilization of the southernmost part of the Waller Creek Trail reveals low to moderate diversity of use in this area.

Proposed increases in the amount and types of usesduring the day, at night, and seasonally- will result in additional pedestrian hotspots throughout the district.
