Direct Design Assistance: Visualization, District Del Sol, St. Paul, MN, 2005

District Del Sol, located in Saint Paul's West Side, was interested in adding planters and hanging baskets to green their business district. The Riverview Economic Development Association (REDA) asked the Design Center to create some illustrations of how the streetscape may look after greening strategies are implemented in order to market the project to local business owners. REDA had previously created a plan of where additional trees and planters would be located. The Design Center created three photographic representations illustrating how the neighborhood might look after greenery is added.
