Date of Defense 2010-04-30 Availability unrestricted Abstract This thesis is an eutopian project: it examines what is with a sense of what should be to see what must be done. The project is a rerouting of Interstate 581 inRoanoke, Virginia through a reinforced concrete tunnel from the Orange Avenue exit to the Elm Avenue exit with towers placed at intervals along the tunnel to provide
light. A reinforced concrete pedestrian bridge links the towers and provides a path from downtown Roanoke to the Civic Center.
