Trinity River Corridor Design Guidelines

Dallas, TX
Firm: Wallace Roberts & Todd, LLC, Dallas, TX
Client: City of Dallas, Trinity River Corridor Project

The Trinity River Corridor will be didactic landscape unlike any other � where are and sustainability will coexist throughout the built form, advancing the city�s most progressive goals and values; where infrastructure will be rendered green infrastructure; where vastness will be sensed and understood alongside the minute, and where Dallas will rediscover and redefine itself.

Beautiful forms and light handed. It held our attention. The diagrams convey the various layers of intervention and passive ecological processes. We really hope this is implemented.

Awards Jury

The Trinity River Corridor Design Guidelines will establish the character and measure of sustainability for the largest green infrastructure initiative in the United States — a 9-mile urban park, floodway and transportation improvement project that will anchor the transformation of central Dallas into a quilt of mixed-use and transit-oriented neighborhoods. The scope, scale and design challenges posed by this project are unique; they also serve to underscore the role of green infrastructure in re-casting cities as sustainable environments.
