The Indian Lake community in Worcester, Massachusetts combines an environment of natural beauty, residential neighborhoods, industry, and commerce. Working closely with the Indian Lake Watershed Association, we planned for the implementation of a walkable pathway that meets the needs of the community. Through research and interviews with stakeholders, we analyzed the various themes of walkability to produce recommendations. Utilizing Geographic Information Systems, we mapped these recommendations for a visual representation of our design.
