In its fourth year, Envision Resilience moved north along the coast and the communities of Portland and South Portland, Maine, embraced Envision Resilience. The ideas for adaptation, nature-based solutions, and equitable and accessible design flowed thanks to the openness of the community members stewarding the challenge. Students conducted hands-on fieldwork—kayaking along coasts, trekking through mudflats, collecting plant and soil samples—and proposed new ways to connect fresh and saltwater, residential and industrial, history and future. They proposed parks designed to absorb rainwater, oil tanks converted to generate solar power, greened infrastructure and more, as you’ll see in the coming pages.
