Sometimes, there is an opportunity for a grand gesture to demonstrate a connection that solves for universal access.

Far more often, it is the micro adjustments of grades, walkways, building entries, edge conditions, and material treatments like those of CCCC and MCC that feel as if they have always been there (or should have been).
