Engaging High Street, Chestertown MD

Abstract

Landscape architecture masters students explore the rational site design process at selected project scales with the utilization of GIS as the primary tool. The primary goal of the Chestertown Streetscape Project is to assess the current selected streetscape and offer alternatives with two primary objectives: the reduction of utility lines, and activation of sense of place even with Covid-19 protocols in place. Existing planning documents and design studies are gathered and reported out to understand the context of Chestertown. Students then put forward updated renditions of Chestertown Maryland’s central boulevard, High Street.
