In preparation for the Center of Urban Agriculture design project, I worked in a group to look in-depth at various elements of the site and surrounding context in the North Side of Pittsburgh. Urban systems looked at food services, transportation, green spaces, outfall and drainage, and environmental factors. The information was compiled to be used as a common resource as we moved forward with the design. I developed a strong ability for site research and user research through this process.

The project was done in collaboration with Cotey Anderegg, Christina Brown, Eric Chen Maxwell Forsyth, Lingfan Jiang, Zhouli Lin, Zhouying Lin, Monica Toren, Shan Wang, and Kai Zhang. I was in charge of the commute systems part in this project.
