Project One

For this research assignment, my group members and I decided to study the way-finding
system of High Park. This is our case study: "Our group has decided to look into parks and green space in the urban environment. We will look at High Park and how the way finding system of the park is organized to ensure citizens and tourists alike are able to reach their destination within the park. To understand how a park’s way finding system is developed we will also compare and contrast High Park to other large parks in urban settings such as Central Park in New York and Regent's Park in London."
This week each of us is responsible for researching the way-finding system of one other large park in an urban setting to compare/ contrast to High Park later; I'm looking into Regent's Park (London, England). I was there last summer, so I have some personal experience; I remember that my boyfriend and I were trying to narrow down the attractions (we only had a week in London) and the deciding factor in choosing to go to Regent's Park was the fact that the London Zoo is located on the grounds, however, the zoo is not actually labelled on the park map. (http://www.royalparks.org.uk/parks/regents_park/)
I remember having my doubts that it was even there before we went because of this - why would such a historic and world renowned site not be on the park map?!?
It only shows up at all (as ZSL, nonetheless, which stands for the Zoological Society of London) when you click on "Kid's in the Park" (and hover over #2) or "Sports and Leisure" (and hover over #3). It's not until you actually click on the tab that any information about the zoo shows up.
Otherwise the map seems well organized, but I've got more researching to do on that....
