This
aerial photograph illustrates the Traditional Pattern study
site essentially as it exists today. A simplified depiction
of the site infrastructure is superimposed. Joint utility
lines (aerial) are shown in a dashed yellow line; water lines
are shown in a light blue line; combined storm and sanitary
sewer lines are shown in a solid dark blue line with catchbasins
indicated by small dark blue squares; property lines are shown
in a dot-dashed red line; building front setbacks in a solid
orange line; curbs in a solid purple line; sidewalks in a solid
green line; and gravel shoulders in a dashed purple line.
Of the total site 49% is permeable surface of lawn, planting
bed and gravel lanes; 27% of the site covered by dwelling, storage,
and garage structures; and 24% is paved sidewalk and road.
Gravel lanes eliminate the need for paved driveways.
