Abstract
Our proposal focuses on a rezoning area of San Jose in-between Santa Clara Valley Medical Center and San Jose City College. Our vision for the project places an importance on creating a stronger connection between users of both the hospital and college. We believe the creation of a public green space, along with the implementation of improved public transit can act as centerpiece for this urban development…

The culture in which humans once engaged each other and their environment has diminished as asphalt takes over green spaces. In addition, the environment has suffered from the release of green house gases fueling the urban life. It is time for communities like Cupertino, California to initiate sustainable alternatives ways of travel…

Team Gävle
Abstract
This project aims to make a suggestion for the million programme area Andersberg, located south of central Gävle. The suggestion shows a vision for a more vibrant district, containing a new design and a traffic plan for an ATV system. Andersberg is characterized by high red residential buildings placed in a monotonous way. With a cul-de-sac system the accessibility by car is low within the area…

Team NYSDOT
Abstract
The objective of this project was to design a master plan on an existing department of transportation site that is in the process of being moved to a new location. The site was to include passive design strategies, Personal Rapid Transit System (PRT), and a mix of building types including residential, commercial, offices, and a transportation center. It was decided that cars would be eliminated from the site to take full advantage of the PRT system that would travel through the site…
