Urban Sounds

Take Aways:

1. The existing sound decibels don’t bother pedestrians as much as previously assumed. Instead, the quality that people seemed to gravitate towards to the most was the existence of sidewalk seating.
2. In order to extend Downtown Springfield towards our site, barriers such as trees, light fixtures, and parking are important elements that promotes foot traffic.
3. Slowing down traffic along main street will potentially promote foot traffic along the site considering the commercial development in the area.
