This book summarizes the design work undertaken by Auburn University Master of Landscape Architecture students for a part of the Red Rock Ridge & Valley Trail System in Birmingham, AL. Intensive, strategic landscape interventions were designed in areas between the Sports Crossplex in Five Points, to Sloss Furnaces and Avondale Park. These proposals anchor and focus specific points along the trail and act as a mechanism for facilitating change. They aim to provoke new thinking about strategies to re-link areas of the city which have become disconnected by ongoing population movement, and to explore ways to leverage the Tiger Grant investment in communities. This is done by not only promoting healthy heart activities but by also creating economic catalyst opportunities along the trail.
