With the aid of a huge aerial study map, participants were asked to place a green dot on the places and features that they see as a positive element in the area. Red dots represented challenges or not-so-great aspects in the area.
This Poke-A-Dot wall serves as a highly visual way for the vision to take these things into consideration by building on the positive attributes of the area and working to improve the less desirable ones.How can a photo or a word help to share your vision for the waterfront? By creating a massive wall with everyone’s images all combined into a collage of images – that’s how.
Participants chose the words and photos of things that sparked their imagination about what the waterfront could and should be for them.
