During the internship with the City of Seattle Department of Planning and Development, Lani Leuthvilay worked directly with urban designers, land use planners, and transportation planners on the development of a streetscape concept plan for Thomas Street to guide future development. The concept design plans prioritized pedestrian and bicycling safety, green stormwater infrastructure, mixed-use development, and other stakeholder group concerns.  Outside of design work, Lani also had the opportunity to develop a green stormwater infrastructure manual for Seattle homeowners which provides green design solutions and permitting guidance to better and safely manage stormwater runoff on residential property.
