I ka wā i hānau mua ʻia ai ʻo Barbara Walker Crossing i ka makahiki 2012, ʻo kāna hana nui ka mālama ʻana i ka poʻe holo wāwae a me nā kukini ma Portland's Wildwood Trail i ka pilikia o ka pale ʻana i ke kaʻa ma West Burnside Road.
Ua lilo ia i mea hōʻoia i ka hoʻolālā nani, hoʻohui i ka pono a me ka nani no kahi kaiāulu i waiwai (a koi) ʻelua.
Hoʻopau ʻia i ʻOkakopa 2019 a hoʻokumu ʻia i ka mahina hoʻokahi, ʻo ke alahaka he ala hele wāwae 180-kapuaʻi ka lōʻihi i hoʻolālā ʻia e hoʻohuli ʻia a hoʻolālā ʻia e hui pū me ka nahele a puni.
Ua hana ʻia ma waho o ka pūnaewele e ka Portland Supreme Steel Company i pau i kēia manawa, ʻoki ʻia i ʻekolu ʻāpana nui, a laila lawe ʻia i ke kahua.
ʻO ka hoʻokō ʻana i nā koi ʻike a me ka hoʻolālā ʻana ʻo ia ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā mea e hiki ai ke hoʻokō i nā pahuhopu kūʻokoʻa loa o ka papahana, ma ke ʻano noʻeau a me ke ʻano. uhi nahele.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Ed Carpenter, he mea hoʻolālā a me ka mea pena kiʻi i ka nui o ka lehulehu, he nui kāna mau pahuhopu i ka wā i hāpai ai ʻo ia i ke alahaka.
"No ka mea, ʻo kekahi o kaʻu mau pahuhopu hoʻolālā koʻikoʻi ʻo ka hana ʻana i ke alahaka maʻalahi a maopopo, pono iaʻu i nā mea ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi loa a me ka ʻōnaehana hoʻolālā maikaʻi loa e hiki ai - no laila, ʻekolu-chord trusses," wahi a Carpenter, ʻo ia hoʻi ka mea hoihoi i waho. .Ke holo nei ma ka ʻōnaehana ala nui o Portland no 40 mau makahiki.
ʻO Stuart Finney, he mea hana ʻenekinia ma ke keʻena ʻenehana ʻo KPFF ma Portland a me kahi luna hana alahaka mua, ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i nā ʻāpana āpau ma nā hui TYK kahi e hui ai nā paipu kākoʻo a pau paha ka paʻakikī loa. nā pilikia no ka hui kūkulu.
"ʻO ka mea nui, he ʻokoʻa kēlā me kēia hui," wahi a Finney, ka mea i hoʻomaʻamaʻa i ka hana no 20 mau makahiki.
ʻO ke alahaka hele wāwae ʻo Barbara Walker Crossing e pili ana i ke alanui Burnside kaʻa nui o Portland. Ua hele ola ia ma ʻOkakopa 2019.
"Pono e hoʻololi piha ʻia nā welds. ʻO ka welding kekahi o nā ʻāpana paʻakikī o ka hana ʻana."
ʻO ka inoa o Ferry, ʻo Barbara Walker (1935-2014), he kumu nui ia o ka hoʻōla ʻana o Portland no nā makahiki, a he ʻano ikaika ʻo ia o ke ʻano. ʻo ia ka Wildwood Trail a me ke Alahaka.
E like me kā Walker i hōʻiliʻili ai ma kahi o $500,000 mai ka lehulehu no Pioneer Courthouse Square ($15 no ka paving stone), ua hōʻiliʻili ka Portland Parks Foundation i $2.2 miliona mai kahi o 900 mau haʻawina pilikino e kōkua i ke kālā ʻana i ke alahaka.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Carpenter he mea paʻakikī ke hoʻohālikelike ʻana i nā leo a me nā leo he nui ma ka papahana, akā pono ia.
"Manaʻo wau ʻo ka ʻike koʻikoʻi ka hui kaiaulu nui, ka haʻaheo nui, a me ka hoʻopili nui - ke uku nei nā kānaka no ia mea," wahi a Carpenter.
Ua hoʻohui ʻo Finney, ʻo ia a me kāna hui, a me nā mea hana i kuleana no ka hoʻokō ʻana i nā hoʻolālā i ke ola, pono e lanakila i nā pilikia he nui i ka hoʻohālike 3D a lākou i hana ai, ma muli wale nō o nā paʻakikī o nā hui a me nā pono.
"Ke hana nei mākou me kā mākou mea kikoʻī e hōʻoia i ka laina o nā hiʻohiʻona a pau, no ka mea, ʻaʻohe wahi no ka hewa me ka nui o kēia mau hui no ka paʻakikī o ka geometry," wahi a Finney.
"Ma muli o ia mea, nui ka paʻakikī liʻiliʻi e puka mai ana i loko o ka papahana. E ʻōlelo maoli wau he ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī ma mua o ka [project] maʻamau. He nui ka hana a nā mea a pau e hoʻokō ai i kēia papahana."
Eia nō naʻe, e like me ka Carpenter, ma waena o nā mea nui o ka paʻakikī o ke alahaka, ʻo ka mea e hāʻawi ai i ke alahaka i kona hopena holoʻokoʻa ʻo ia ka curved deck. He mea pono anei ka pilikia e hana i kēia?
"Manaʻo wau e hoʻomaka ka hoʻolālā maikaʻi me ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa a laila neʻe i kahi mea hou aʻe," wahi a Carpenter.
Ua hana ʻia ke alahaka hele wāwae ʻo Barbara Walker Crossing ma waho o ke kahua, ua māhele ʻia i ʻelua ʻāpana nui, a laila lawe ʻia i kona wahi i kēia manawa. Portland Parks Foundation
"Pehea ʻoe e hana ai i kahi ʻāpana curved? ʻAe, ua ʻike ʻia, ʻoiaʻiʻo, ke hana maikaʻi nei kahi ʻekolu-chord truss ma kahi pihi. Loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi lakene hohonu-a-span maikaʻi loa. No laila, he aha kāu e hana ai me kahi ʻekolu-chord truss e hoʻonani a nani, a e kuhikuhi i ka nahele ma ke ʻano e ʻike ʻia ai ka huaʻōlelo, a laila ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻomaka me kahi ʻē aʻe? e pili ana i ka noʻonoʻo.
Hoʻomaikaʻi nui ʻo Carpenter i ka hui KPFF no ka hāʻawi ʻana iā ia i mea hoʻoikaika e pono ai ʻo ia e hana i nā paipu ma waho o ka papa, kahi i hāʻawi ai i ke alahaka i kahi manaʻo kūlohelohe, emergent mai ka nahele.
"He mea maikaʻi ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi mea e hāʻawi aku ai i kēia kūlanakauhale a haʻaheo iā ia, akā maikaʻi nō hoʻi e hoʻoponopono i kahi hoʻokūkū ʻenekinia maʻemaʻe," wahi a Finney.
Wahi a ka Portland Parks Foundation, ma kahi o 80,000 poʻe hele wāwae e hoʻohana i ke alahaka hele wāwae i kēlā me kēia makahiki, e hoʻopakele i ka pilikia o ka hele ʻana i kahi ʻāpana alanui e ʻike ai ma kahi o 20,000 mau kaʻa i ka lā.
I kēia lā, hoʻomau ke alahaka i ka manaʻo o Walker no ka hoʻohui ʻana i nā kamaʻāina Portland a me nā malihini i ka nani o ka ʻāina kūlohelohe a puni.
"Pono mākou e hoʻolako i nā poʻe o ke kūlanakauhale i ke ʻano o ke ʻano," wahi a Walker (i ʻōlelo ʻia e ka World Forestry Center).
