My continued professional and personal interest in the functions and design of public parks influenced me to generate a project theses that explores various aspects of a park\u27s development. My intent is summarized as follows:
1. investigation of social and physical aspects of public spaces in the urban environment
2. generation of a realistic project program based on the needs and desires of the specific user groups for a case study park site
3. application of a design methodology to the case study park site
4. development of a site design that meets program requirements
5. production of the working drawings necessary for the park\u27s implementation to further investigate construction techniques
This project thesis has little value as a contribution of significant information to the landscape architectural design profession. However, it served as a viable approach for specific and thorough investigation of public spaces and an application of a park in an urban situation
