West Wheelock Street Research and Analysis Connecticut River / Ledyard Bridge Peaceful zone Rowing house Water access Social space (summer/spring) Serene entrance into campus Representative of quaint Hanover Impactful entry Electric wires Stunning view Forest / nature 3 Peaceful zone cont. Winter vs. spring impression Pavement too wide for the road Random mailbox placement Wires continue to disrupt serenity of nature Urbanization and the environment Pavement lined with snow looks unappealing / messy Concealed pavement more visually appealing Electric wires disrupt trees Housing 4 Houses unevenly spaced Large parking lot spaces detract from quaint homes Houses closer together on left side of road vs right Spaces behind homes filled with big trees (aesthetic) Traditional architecture of homes doesn’t blend well with Thayer Smiley face on windows - welcoming Yellow exterior adds pop of colour Intriguing staircase structure Houses in poor condition Thayer / Construction 5 Active zone Senior apartments next to thayer detract visually Boxy vs. tech-focus of Thayer vs. traditional look of surrounding homes clash Tech-focus node New dorm feels almost industrial Add landscaping / greenery to blend it in better? Much more modern design – stands far away from campus so actually works well Obvious visual block New dorm design will blend well with Thayer's architecture Frat / Sorority Zone 6 All structures made of brick Cohesive Social domain (greek life) Brick wall outside of Theta Delta isn’t visually appealing Replace with vegetation? Both greek houses well-built Fit well into Dartmouth’s quaint feel Design matches most of the dorm buildings; cohesive look Brick wall doesn’t mesh well with surroundings Religious node Intersection / The Green 7 Crosswalk is intersection of student life and town life Collis center of student life, across from foco View of The Green from crosswalk is nice Hanover Inn appealing exterior Each corner of interaction has its own purpose Social center Interesting architecture Structure feels homey Hard to blend in with surroundings Collis porch looks inviting Hand-Drawn Elevation Drawing 8 RHINO Elevation Drawing 9
