520 $a Mount Washington sits atop Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, overseeing the flows of the Allegheny, Monongahela and Ohio rivers. Its physical form and presence has been evolving over the last 300 million years, a timescale beyond typical human constructs. Today, its topography enables sweeping views across the city and the river valley beyond. The temporal and physical scale of Mount Washington renders it a sublime object, worthy of contemplation. The thesis seeks to engage natural and man-made features of Mount Washington throughout the site.
520 $a Throughout history, cemeteries and other landscapes of the dead have been extraordinary subjects of sublime experiences. The thesis abstracts elements of cemeteries and reassembles a choreographed promenade. Using the language of path and place, this promenade seeks to accommodate and respect rituals of cremation and the accommodation of the dead in the landscape.
