Cleveland, Ohio
Professor Randy Doi
Fall 2015
Cleveland is a young and fast paced city. There are many
opportunities for young families and professionals. The city is
working toward a walkable urban environment; in turn moving
away from an automotive dominated city. The goal is to create
an environment to fit a variety of household sizes and attract
adventurous visitors year round. This idea takes advantage of
the active riverfront and the towpath. Cleveland lacks a direct
connection to the riverfront and has the potential to utilize it.
The urban dweller would enjoy a short commute to work and
their spare time living an adventurous life on the river.

modern style. All of the studies were made using the same
pieces in different orientations. The final constructed model
