Ditch and Hedgerows West Haven, Franklin, Tennessee This drainage ditch, bordered by two lines of scraggly trees separating open fields, was the only item of visual interest in an otherwise featureless landscape. Very much to their credit, New Urbanist designers at DPZ recognized that, with a bit of editing and pruning, these trees could be transformed into something much more than the sum of their paltry parts. This ensemble now serves as the central median in one of the boulevards leading into the heart of this new traditional neighborhood. Photo by Randall Arendt. |
