The overall project goal is to provide engineering plans and specifications for a commercial tenant at the site, which takes advantage of the proximity to major transportation routes, excellent location relative to the urban center of Utica, and the presence of government agencies to provide entitlement funding, also situated in Utica, New York. The design team overall goal is to create a site that is not only functional, but also aesthetically pleasing. This should be a site that is easy for maintenance and ground crews to maintain, and one that will also be able to retain its value for several years without redesign or needless additions. Along with being functional, it is a goal to be self-sustaining and reuse as many natural resources as possible.
