PARKING LOT CONVERSION <br />CASE STUDY TOWN AND COUNTRY RIVER PARK, SAN DIEGO, CA <br />In most cities, surface parking lot pavement traps heat and creates an impervious surface where oils <br />and pollutants run off into the surrounding environment. To address deficiencies in park acreage, <br />more efficient parking solutions can be developed allowing surface lots to be reclaimed as park <br />landscapes. In San Diego, underutilized surface parking lots were converted to Town and Country <br />River Park. The new park provides both recreational and ecological benefits for the community. <br />Where there was once a parking lot, San Diego residents now enjoy spending time in a beautiful new park that helps to support the health <br />of the nearby river habitat. <br />180 <br />NEIGHBORHOOD/POCKET PARK ALONG TRAIL <br />CASE STUDY ORION PARK, CHULA VISTA, CA <br />These smaller sites provide opportunities to bring recreational park space into existing trail systems. <br />These smaller parks are accessible to the neighborhood community and enhance the trail experience. <br />Orion Park is an excellent example of a greenbelt trail that ties seamlessly into a neighborhood park, <br />providing recreational opportunities for all ages. This project also demonstrates the trend through <br />which parks are funded and built by private developers and turned over to the city as a public parks <br />after construction. Additional opportunities include the ability to include amenities such as dog runs, <br />par courses, picnic areas, outdoor fitness stations, and active and passive play areas for all age groups. <br />Orion Park features a colorful play area and restrooms surrounded by a rain garden that filters stormwater. <br />C•i.7 <br />nile <br />itial <br />181 <br />
