Site Diagram

The site I chose was the MLK Jr. Busway that runs through Pittsburgh. I find this structure particularly unique in the way it divides the city and the different ways it relates to the ground plane. The diagram I produced takes a look at adjacencies and porosity as well as time along the busway. For ease of reading the diagram I abstractly unraveled the busway into a straight line.

I'm interested in taking my project to a large-scale urban intervention. I first analyzed the busway in the urban lab with my studio in Wilkinsburg. I wish to expand on this analysis and look at the entire busway (at least at the start) and find a program that is appropriate.
