Retaining wall elevation (existing)

Elevation: retaining wall
Elevation close-up: site existing
Rather than a series of interventions along the wall, I have decided to use this location as a test bed which will act as a catalyst for activity along the rest of the wall. Perhaps surprisingly, I have decided to use a part of the wall which already has a pedestrian route through. The reasons for this are as follows:
- working with existing ideas of ways to traverse the wall. What works, what doesn't?
- developers have attempted to introduce a pedestrian route through but it is hardly used and priority remains on vehicular circulation
- this is a key point near two main routes up to the mountain - hierarchy of routes (referencing village on Inwangsan)
