Video Evidence: 18th to 22nd

This is the passenger perspective, looking East on a train moving North to South.

Sample Neighborhood Survey

What do you guys think about this survey? It's designed to establish the users level of familiarity with the space and issue. It should high light the level of need and the therefore the overall relevance of a solution.

Bird Eye View of Location

Take a look at all the section of track in question both whole and parted...

The yellow bit of track is 1000 feet long and runs through Dolores Park. This stretch of track is the most littered, dark, and vandalized because it unlike the other bits of track, has public assess. It also has vegetation, wall space, a walk path, and skywalks which are all nice design opportunities.

The Blue bit of track is 500 feet and has a heavily painted red fence in front of a bit of a view of the north east bay area on one side and a tall wall I'd say goes 6-7 feet up with paint. Both the fence and the walls present nice design opportunities.

The Green bit of track has vine covering most of the right side of track which is a nice solution integrating nature. The other side of track is mostly chain link fence. It also has a unique bus stop that needs some tlc.

The Purposed Section of Track

Here is a close up of the section of track in question. It's around 2000 feet long and weaves through backyards into Dolores Park. I believe the space presents the opportunity for 3 public art installations designed to reduce mental and physical pollution, cost to San Francisco, and increase community health.

Panel of Experts

Take a look at the experts I'll be pursuing interviews with...

PERT Chart the Print Out

The primary difference here is the addition of a space to add ideas or tasks that may come up in the process. This is a nice feature because the document could be printed out and distributed amongst a team and reviewed fluidly along the design process.

PERT Chart

This is how I will be gladly spending my time over the next three months of my life.

Project Timeline

Here are the dates that I expect to have the different aspects of this research project completed on. There are also a few very important appointment dates included. Even though there is no direct link from the "line" to the "events" I feel the ticks along the line which essentially mimics the mapping of a stop light and the dates in the event boxes which are in english left to right reading format convey the feel of time passing well, what do you think?

Problem & Purpose Statement

Problem Statement:

The J Church Light Rail line in San Francisco has 19,000 riders a day. A portion of its route starting at 22nd & Church ending at Church & 18th is baron, littered, and a target for graffiti.

Purpose Statement:

The purpose of this study is to identify why the space is in this state, examine the effect on local ethnography, and develop a solution.
