    Stormwater and Urban Design: Urban Design Strategies for Four Sites on the Atlanta BeltLine
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2012) Ahuja, Rattandeer ; Boron, Roberta ; Gao, Long ; Hampton, Travis ; Hang, Yu ; Hightower, John ; Kai, Liao ; Richter, Laura ; Tao, Shiqi ; Wallace, Justin ; Xing, Hafei ; Dagenhart, Richard ; Debo, Thomas N.
    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.

    Atlanta Braves Baseball Stadium Redevelopment: Stadium Neighborhoods TAD
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2010) Dagenhart, Richard ; Green, David ; Chapman, Jutin ; Burtoyan, Hrach ; Chapman, Justin ; Hawthorne, Dane ; Kellog, Kristin ; Smith, Taylor
    An urban design studio and research project advising the City of Atlanta and the Atlanta Braves regarding proposed redevelopment of the site of the Fulton County Stadium and Turner Field. The site was within the boundary of the Stadium Neighborhoods TAD (Tax Allocation District) which provides tax increment financing for infrastructure and public purpose projects. The primary aim of the project was to prepare a decision framework and an illustrative plan for the stadium parking lots for future commercial development, housing and deck parking for about 5000 spaces to serve the Braves on game days and conventional real estate demands. Of particular concern was weaving the project with the surrounding neighborhoods, which had long been impacted by urban urban renewal, parking overflow into neighborhoods, and lack of community services and jobs. The project became moot after the Braves left Downtown Atlanta for the suburbs. However, the City of Atlanta adopted the report as the basis for a Request for Proposals for public/private entities to acquire the Turner Field Stadium and parking lots for other uses. The site was awarded to a private developer in partnership with Georgia State University’s expansion and athletic facilities. The report was also the basis for a Neighborhood Benefits agreement between the surrounding neighborhoods and the Georgia State/Developer partnership.

    International Urban Design Studio : Shanghai 2010
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2010) Getty, Drew ; Thompson, Claire ; Williams, Galen ; Jones, Paul ; Murphy, Diana ; Tabor, Reginald ; Johnson, Louis ; Sanders, Julie ; Ghizoni, Renato ; Morrow, Edward ; Wallace, Ross
    In response to a lack of urbanity and a voided public realm, this project is an attempt to redefine the fabric of Lujiazui through tactical interventions in the urban landscape. Part of our approach is to accept the existing condition of the site and respond to the site through the imposition of a new order. This new order will take advantage of the existing movement systems which pulse potential energy through the site. Given this flux condition, the tactics are thought of as interations of a flexible framework. The design framework is composed of 3 elements (path, node, cofetti) which adapt to interpretation and contingency yet provide a clear foundation for urban development.
