The Garrett Potee Street corridor in Brooklyn, Baltimore, is a landscape shaped by industrial legacy, environmental challenges, and fragmented public space. This project reimagines the corridor through the concept “Access Through Landscapes,” where circulation is not just movement but a meaningful experience that connects people, ecology, and place.

By treating access as an immersive sequence rather than a simple path, the design introduces layered circulation routes—pedestrian, bicycle, transit, and ecological corridors—that guide users through restored green systems, community gathering pockets, and historical touchpoints. These routes integrate stormwater landscapes, shaded walkways, habitat plantings, and interpretive elements that transform everyday travel into moments of learning, reflection, and community interaction.

Working closely with the Baybrook Creating Pathways to Remediation initiative, the project addresses long-standing issues of environmental contamination, lack of safe mobility, and limited public amenities. The proposed framework strengthens neighborhood identity, expands equitable access to green space, and improves environmental performance through nature-based infrastructure.

Ultimately, the goal is to create transform Garrett-Potee Corridor  a resilient, community-serving landscape where movement is an experience, ecology is restored, and access is redefined as a dynamic relationship between residents and their environment.
