Megan Zeigler's March Update

In March 2011, my time was spent primarily on three main projects; SPARC, Troy Hill’s Vacant Land Assessment Report and the Regency Lot design. SPARC is a corridor greening initiative in the East Liberty and Larimer neighborhoods along East Liberty Drive and Larimer Avenue. I successfully conducted a charrette for the Larimer Green Team for their “Village Green” on March 24th and am currently refining the design to be presented to the community in April. GTECH evaluated the Troy Hill community’s vacant land and secured a grant to complete a project for this year. I developed a survey to gauge the community’s sentiments on vacant land and greening issues in their community. I also created a series of maps with proposed short-term and long-term uses for 4 potential site locations for residents to vote on. The final report is due mid April and will reflect the community’s opinions. For the Regency Lot, I refined the design, created a work plan, budget and plant list for the project. This installation will require coordinating 2 volunteer days over the next two months.
