Buffalo's Main Street is a wide street, facing many issues in pedestrian access. This assignment is a proposed redesign to improve both pedestrian and bicycle travel.

This assignment required the analysis and redesign of a vacant or underused lot in Buffalo. I had chosen a large parking lot as the focus of my study.

To learn the fundamentals of street design and corridor retrofits, this assignment required each student to analyze and suggest redesigns for five different corridors in Buffalo and Amherst NY.

I worked with Citizen Planning School as part of One Region Forward. I was given the opportunity to become a Student Advisor for a Buffalo resident - giving her what she needed to develop a trail around her neighborhood.

As part of an effort to improve air quality in Buffalo, our team had created sidewalk redesigns to add greenery and outdoor seating to residents.

Various sketches created during my undergraduate career.

This was my first attempt at creating streetscape graphics. Each student was given a specific located in Buffalo to study. I was given Shea's Theatre, where I would analyze multiple features of this location - such as the surrounding streetscape.
