James Corner and Field Operations held the second community workshop on Sunday, sharing the results from the previous workshop as well as three initial schemes for the high-profile park project. A complete pdf of the presentation as well as summaries of the concepts and feedback are available for download on the
project's website. Initial impressions: three interesting and distinct ideas for the space, but The Arroyo Wash Concept is my clear favorite. Something about the lines and character of the graphic imply something genuine about the site in a way that the other concepts don't quite capture. They feel more introduced, forced, or perhaps even over-designed at this stage, whereas the Arroyo Wash Concept has a simple, strong elegance to it. Will be interesting to see how the feedback process and design development help shape concept selection and development.
