• Terrace Design

• Terraces would give the park a spacious feel and
  allow for landscapeing.
• Terraces will better fit on the slope when
  slanted to make use of all excavated fill.
• Car pull-out at the bottom of the slope will
  provide better access for handicapped people.
• A 10 ft deck aligned with the building provides
  better over all pod viewing along with beautiful
  views of the inlet.

• Walkways

• The slope of the terrace is not greater than 120
  so walkways do not require handrails which opens
  up the exhibits to feel more park-like.
• Meandering sidewalks give flow to the exhibits
  and encourage people to take time viewing the
  pods.
• The meandering sidewalks will also add to
  individual pod seclusion.

• Pods

• Pods are located on the edge of each terrace with
  room for benches and a magnificent view over Knik
  Arm.
• Pod placement creates a more open feeling rather
  than cut into the hill which could feel cramped.
• Placement creates an interesting effect with the
  terracing which would be visually appealing.

• Excavation

• Design cuts into the hill as little as possible,
  without importing fill, in order to try and
  circumvent problems with utility placement.
• Each terrace is 40 ft wide by 300 ft long which
  not only fits to the slope well but is
  symmetrical allowing contractor to make use of
  the cut by using it to fill the other half of
  each terrace.
