TREK 2016: West to East – Post-Industrial Site Transformation

This travel focused on projects that have transformed post-industrial sites into public spaces. The goal was to understand how landscape projects redirect the environment legacy of post-industrial landscape and create a new identity. Projects on both the east coast and west coast were compared to help discover different design solutions to renew the industrial past of the site.
