Adriane Fowler • Synthesis

The purpose of this project is to reconnect the Fens to the city at key points through the revival of some of its historic roles:

• cleansing of city stormwater.

• evoking the site's pre-development marshland state.

This sets up a structure for the passive and active use of the park by residents and visitors. The intervention respects current uses and integrates existing significant spaces, such as the rose garden and stadium, while reviving Olmsted's intent for the park's functions.
