Urban Design Variables Contributing to Better Transit-Oriented Development

2014-05-03 , Alhadeff, Daniel

This paper discusses the effects of several urban design criteria on ridership and the possible success of transit oriented development by comparing these measures across transit systems in three different cities, the Paris RER line C, the Washington DC Blue MetroRail line, and Atlanta’s MARTA. Number of intersections, block size, linear distance of right-of-way were calculated for a 1/4 mile network area around each station using GIS. Walking distance between each station was also calculated to see if having multiple stations nearby had any effect on ridership.

Retreat, Adapt, Defend - Urban Design Response to Sea Level Rise in 5 Coastal Georgia Communities

2013 , Dagenhart, Richard , Debo, Thomas N. , Adams, Kevin , Aguilar, Johnny , Alhadeff, Daniel , Blumenfeld, Amy , Cadet, Sherene , Hutchison, Alyssa , Manley, Canon , McClure, Melvin , Plummer, Audrey , Riley, R. Dawn , Tuura, Logan , Wallace, Justin , Wang, Jiawen , Zhang, Yigong

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.

Northside Drive as a Multimodal Developmental Corridor: Transformation from Utilitarian Auto Route to Grand Transit Boulevard

2012 , Anders, Joel , Bedward, Tanya , Brodie, Stefanie , Cardoni, Lauren , Carragher, Margaret , Cox, Rachel , Gooze, Aaron , Hyer, Garrett , Ingles, Amy , Kalinke, Lydia , Levin, Josh , McColley, Sarah , Phillips, Eric , Reed, Landon , Wong, James , Zhang, Wenwen , Alhadeff, Daniel , Ward, Elizabeth

The studio explored ways to transform Northside Drive from a dismal, disorganized underperforming corridor that frames the west side of the Atlanta core into a grand transit boulevard. Picture a tree-lined, well-lit boulevard, wide and grand, with medians, and ample accommodation of all travel modes, lined with mid-rise mixed income residential buildings with as much retail and other ground floor activities as the market will support. With the proper transportation and zoning design, over time this now dismal traffic corridor will transform all the way from I-75 to West End. Increasing mixed use development densities will support a growing share of transit, pedestrian and bicycle uses as distances shorten between residential and jobs concentrations. Planned and developed properly, the transformation will break down Northside’s historic race and class divide to become a great urban street whose assets and attractions provide a common ground for sharing the strengths of diverse populations.
