We were asked analyze the current conditions and imagine possible opportunities in developing a hillside site in Portland, Oregon. Tri-Met, the local public transportation authority, is looking to install a new light rail line around the proposed site in an effort to provide more of a connection to the Oregon Health and Sciences University (OHSU) and surrounding area. The site includes an existing but unused historic synagogue, a protected forest, and is surrounded by multiple neighborhood districts and a web of existing roadways. Working with these groups as well as the engineering department at University of Portland, we were asked to evaluate the best location for the new Light Rail stop, the best method to convey people from the stop to OHSU located atop a hill, and identify what sort of program the newly used site would call for.
