The sea evaporated, leaving behind salt and limestone-- which emerged as majorresources in the 19th century. The project reengages histories that contributed to orm the site, as a means obuilding a robust place-related identity going orward. A StoryCorps Porch will enable residents to contribute to urther these histories. Tra ces othe Saltworks -- the frst industry to occupy the site- - provide a larger grain within which to inscribe and integrate new elements and spaces, inorming their design language, allowing modulation in relation to diverse site condition s. Salt sheds are reinterpreted as programmatic mobile devices. (See also “Building Bicycle Culture” at let.) Other historical events contributed to the ormation osite and neighborhood in the 20th century, producing its disconnection rom Onondaga Creek and downtown (identifed by residents as the ‘Berlin Wall’), its many vacant lots, and abundance oimpermeable surace. To achieve continuity in support ophysical activity, our proposal exceeds the target area to reach Onondaga Creek. The Vacant Lots-Urb an Forestry component othe project recalls the once orested condition oland now occupied by city.

The Ecological Model is a comprehensive health promotion model
concerned with ways in which environment, behavior, and policy
help individuals make healthy choices in their daily lives. The corebelie o the model is that human behavior does not happen in a
vacuum. Rather, human behavior is a complex interaction between
individuals, their amilies, their communities, their spaces, and the
Individual BehaviorStrategies or producing change at the level o the social environment pro-
mote positive community attit udes and awareness around specifc health
behaviors, and/or shit cultural norms around outcomes o interest. Aspects
o the social environment that one might engage include community andcultural norms, the socioeconomic status o t he community, amily habits,
access to social support networks, and saety.
This level ocuses on actors related to an individual’s
behavior as it relates to her/his health. At the level o the
individual, actors inuencing behaviors include knowl-
edge, attitudes, and skills.
