Fulton South Community Park Project

Abstract

Fulton South is an 77 acre site owned by Howard County at the intersection of Route 29 and Rocky Gorge Reservoir. Howard County plans to create a community park at the Fulton South site. The Fulton South Conceptual Plan is the result of a Partnership for Action Learning in Sustainability (PALS) collaboration between Howard County Department of Recreation and Parks and a team of graduate students in Landscape Architecture at the University of Maryland. The design team was asked to prepare a detailed site analysis and two master plans for the site that include connectivity with the local community, ample and diverse recreational opportunities, and valuable habitat conservation/expansion.
