Projects
Quartier Cinq is the 3D model representation of the Master Plan for the Urban Planning Studio Two project in McGill's Master of Urban Planning Program. The goal of Studio Two was to act as a private land developer and develop Mill Street in Montreal, Quebec. Collaboratively, our group decided on a program and layout for the site. The 3D model above was primarily designed by myself, which is why it was been included in this portfolio.

This map is the final output in the Land Use and Transportation course that demonstrates the relationship between the cycling network and income in Toronto, Ontario. The output shows that there is no quantifiable relationship between income and the bike network expansion in Toronto. This means that Torontonians generally have equal access to the bike network regardless of income.
The work on this presentation was completed collaboratively. However, the board layout was designed by me. For Studio One, students were tasked with creating a Master Plan for The Triangle and surrounding area in Montreal, Quebec.
