Rhiannon- TOD


Location :
Bay Meadows
San Mateo, California
The design for Bay Meadows is planned like most transit oriented communities. The streets are said to be very safe. The buildings are nearby and compact. There are many local shops and businesses that provide jobs for citizens. They also create a feeling of home. Because of the denseness of Bay Meadows public buses and bikes can be used to replace cars.
 Location: 
NOMA Specific Plan
Washington, D.C
This area began as a place overrun by offices and businesses. The land is very spread out and there isn’t a real sense of unity. However, soon this will change. Two teams of designers will have the jobs of remodeling the community. Half will work with housing and diversion, and the other half will focus more on the city’s environment. Both will implement TOD into their plans.
