topographic analysis  :  contours, hatchers, slope-based height field, and composite mappings show how an erroded river corridor fans out to become the ground of Baltimore city

parametric analysis of the urban topography identifies watershed sub-basins that drain into the Jones Falls corridor, and calculates their precise areas

sub-basin areas yield volumes for the various design floods conservatively assuming 100% impermeability.  these volumes are imagined populating the edges of the corridor site

how to construct a voronoi area diagram

manipulating grids of dots to conform to site traces and geometires generates adaptive voronoi field strategies with calculable area divisions

this strategy is adopted along the entire site

Baltimore city drains to the newly unearthed Jones Falls corridor, which doubles as a public circulation line that bridges gaps in the existing transport networks and connects important cultural nodes throughout the city
