• Another circulation strategy that can be the use of trails and path ( by using signs on the street and sidewalk to guide any pedestrian/visitor to points of interest which ultimately will bring then the opportunity to explore the waterfront .

• Indicate on nearby public transportation venues the locations and self

guide set of path to explore the waterfront and the historical sites.

CLIMATE STRATEGIES

• In the 1950's, the port authority of New York and New Jersey developed an 85 acre shipping complex, along the shoreline. The concrete structures had a negative effect toward the climate of the region. During the day, the concrete releases heat radiation making the area unbearably hot.

• More green areas should be built along the shoreline and the surrounding neighborhood.

• Historical sites should be incorporated within the landscape providing shade along in various historical points of interest.

OUR NEXT STEPS . . .

• Our next step on team research is to visit The Brooklyn Historical Society to find more about the historical background and locations in the waterfront.

• In addition to research in the Historical society , we considered to visit the waterfront during different times of the day and try to identify the possible changes on the area during various time of the day.

• Our team will be communicating online through email in order to identify task of each member and share information collected and once a week we will considered on meeting after school to finalized task.
