The re-designed engineering quadrangle hosts more intuitive pathways based on an in-depth movement study of pedestrians, vehicles and services. The project was most sensitive to the existing trees and was completed without the relocation of any existing trees and built upon most of the existing planting. A new outdoor garden classroom with seating creates a point of collaboration and more fluid paths offer new perspectives of some of Pratt’s most historic buildings. Additional bike parking, seating, lighting and drainage were incorporated to benefit the student population attending classes as well as the neighborhood at large, which utilizes Pratt’s historic campus as a local public park.
