    East Savannah, GA. Urban Design Proposals - Victory Square Neighborhoods, Truman Parkway, and Sea Level Rise
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2017) Dagenhart, Richard ; Debo, Thomas N. ; Hong, Fenghuan ; Ling, Tianqi ; Xue, Bowen ; Stephen, Sam ; Rickles, Carly ; Khandekar, Tejas ; Zha, Yilun ; Vijaynnand, Karen ; Alz, Maryam ; Dodson, Christy ; Dickenson, Coston ; Choi, Jiho ; Yao, Zeyue ; Zhang, Wenyue ; Majid, Moutushi
    An urban design studio conducted jointly with the Georgia Conservancy for the Victory Square Neighborhoods in Savannah, Georgia. The neighborhoods were under mandatory evacuation orders when Hurricane Irene in 1999 approached. Luckily, the hurricane passed by without damage, but the neighborhoods realized for the first time that they were vulnerable. The studio address both storm surge and sea level rise and their impacts. The critical issue was the Truman Parkway, a grade separated highway, that had disrupted the historic natural drainage and the historic Casey Canal. Urban Design proposals were for various alternative to retrofit or remove the Truman Parkway to deal with future flood events.

    Downtown Atlanta 2041: Autonomous Vehicles and A-Street Grids
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2016-08) Dunham-Jones, Ellen ; Blakeley, Meredith ; Bonn, Sarah Jane ; Goldstein, Eric ; Huang, Shijia ; McMullen, Meghan ; Pang, Lu ; Payson, Mikhail ; Reeves, Blake ; Scott, Stacy ; Shrestha, Animesh
    Downtown Atlanta 2041 is a speculative look 25 years into the future at the opportunities available to build on parking lots and create a walkable network of Class A streets and distinctive neighborhoods around Downtown’s many assets. The design proposals are based on conversations with stakeholders, analysis of current conditions as well as bold assumptions about the future impact of autonomous vehicles. The work was produced by graduate students at Georgia Tech in the Master of Science in Urban Design, (MSUD) spring 2016 studio, under the direction of Professor Ellen Dunham-Jones in the School of Architecture in the College of Design.

    This studio is part of a Georgia Conservancy Blueprints initiative assessing impacts of climate change and sea level rise for Coastal Georgia. The studio was organized into five teams to address issues five cities: Savannah, Tybee Island, Brunswick, Darien and St. Marys. Student teams visited each city, meeting with local officials and leaders of non-profit organization who were involved in adapting to climate change.

    A joint urban design studio with the School of Architecture and the School of City and Regional Planning. The Georgia Conservancy’s Blueprints for Successful Communities program, in partnership with graduate students from the College of Architecture at Georgia Institute of Technology, examined four different sites within metro Atlanta, adjacent to the Atlanta BeltLine (Ansley Mall - Peachtree Creek; Bobby Jones Golf Course/Colonial Homes - Peachtree and Clear Creeks; University Avenue - McDaniel Branch; and Boone Boulevard - Proctor Creek) and prepared design proposals incorporating stormwater hydrology assessment and green infrastructure as the foundation for urban design. . Coordinators were: Leah Barnett, Georgia Conservancy; Richard Dagenhart, R.A., Professor, Georgia Tech; Tom Debo, PhD, P.E., Professor, Georgia Tech; Johanna McCrehan, Georgia Conservancy, Katherine Moore, AICP, Georgia Conservancy. Course instructors were Richard Dagenhart and Tom Debo.

    Beyond Metrics: Designing the Master Street Plan
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2010) Knight, Paul
    Our current system of development regulations attempts to mechanize the design process by molding the complexities of urbanism into simple and naive ratios. This regulatory machine acts only on the parcel and fails to accommodate for the city. As an alternative I will propose a principle-based system of design for the generation of a master street plan that will lead to a more sustainable and holistic form of urbanism.
