The most important aspects I found on the site are : accessibility, safety hazards and distance from one course to an other. Accessibility is one of the major factors in designing a public space, to achieve the best accessibility I combined the access. images of cars, subway, buss, and railways.For safety & hazards I combined the floods, & the crime maps, to come out with the best location for the path, and finally I took distance in consideration, since people tends to prefer short cuts.
 
 
 

The paths connecting the golf courses should have general characteristics that unify them within the golf essence, never the less they should have a fair level of variety distinguishing each one of them, for the sake of character definition and orientation. I think that each path can be of a different level of character boldness. It can have very distinguished as we are the closest to the courses and less dominant as we are at the furthermost point.

The unified general character of the paths should reflect the essence of the golf game. It should have a sequence of focal points to attract the public from one part to another, and to break the monotony of the path. They should be expressive of the general characters of the path with some level variety within each one of them, to enhance the since of unity. The path is to be defined by introducing new street furniture that expresses the points of interest nature, the golf courses, along its course.

The construction materials are to be very tolerant to al types of vandalism.Street furniture can be used to highlight the character of the path we seek. Items like; pre-caste medallions fitted into the existing paths with golf-related patterns, light posts, planters, benches, trash receptacles, etc.

The character of the path should gradually express the theme of the golf courses as they are approached. That will enhance the theme expression of the golf course itself.
