  • The Fields Neighborhood Park Community Questionnaire Results March-April 2007
    The Fields Neighborhood Park Community Questionnaire Results March-April 2007 A Community Questionnaire was included in the initial project newsletter, which was mailed to over 4,000 addresses in the vicinity of the park site (virtually the entire neighborhood) as well as other interested parties. The newsletter was made available for pick-up at Chapman School and Friendly House and made available electronically as well. A total of 148 questionnaires were submitted, either by mail or on the web, by the April 20 deadline. The following summarizes the results. 1. The original framework plan for the River District Parks suggested three common elements that would link the parks together. Which do you feel should be included in The Fields neighborhood park? 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 Boardwalk Pedestrian Gallery Aquifer 2. This park is envisioned as a “neighborhood park no answ er – over two square blocks providing more traditional spaces for neighborhood residents. Do you agree ? with this overall concept? no yes Comments Regarding Question #2 “Traditional Neighborhood Park” #1 - None (of the original “framework concepts” are important What to you mean by "traditional" As long as this park does not become filthy (ie. bad terrain, homeless) like the waterfront, I'm for it. Excellent idea. A traditional park will be a nice complement to the other two parks. I don't know if my selections were recorded above. A continuation of the boardwalk is essential to making the connection between and among the parks. The design of the buildings around the park has narrowed the feeling of openness so it is beginning to look like a private park for the residential buildings surrounding it.

  • Portland, Oregon, USA
    Portland, Oregon, USA Alison Blake + Vanessa Lee ‘The City that Works’ Left: Portland Skyline and Mount Hood Below: MAX, Portland’s Light-Rail Transit (credit: Portland Visitors Association) Portland, Oregon is an environmentally progressive Northwest city that has taken the concept of open space planning to heart. The development of a regional govern- Marginalia:phrase, quote, ment system (Metro) and the adoption of an urban growth boundary in 1979 have photo, drawing, diagram helped protect lands outside of the city while encouraging density and vibrancy (arial, 10pt, justify left) within the city limits. Portland is notable for having almost 6,000-acre Forest Park, the fi fth-largest municipal park in the country. At the same time, master planning efforts have given equal attention to livability and open space within the city, so that Portland today boasts a total of 247 parks and recreational sites including 196 neighborhood parks. Today, Portland is renowned for the efforts it has made to integrate public infrastruc- ture in the name of livability and planning for the future. Attention to the environment and specifi cally to open space are at the heart of these planning efforts, which in- clude the completion and expansion of Portland’s original park systems plan, known as the Forty-Mile Loop.Yet at the same time, Portlands facilities are aging and require attention if they are to meet the needs of an expanding population. Still think- ing ahead, Portland Parks adopted their plan for the future, the Parks 2020 Vision in the year 2000. (See page 5) 1 | PORTLAND, OR We need to blur the boundaries between Park and City.
