Figure Ground Analysis of the route through Portsmouth can start to build a picture of the physical qualities of the area you are within.
These demonstrate how and why you may be feeling how you are at any certain point en-route. Combine this with each persona and a detailed and almost infinite analysis can be made.
For example, there are wide open space’s within the city which you may not be a where of due to the prescience of, say a wall, but until you see in the figure ground of that area you are unaware of anything beyond that wall.
So too demarking the building uses may play with or against the feelings of those personas. Much of the route goes through university 'territory' which to an ASBO teenager may be threatening and which they may resent as 'better' than them. Or as an 80year old, somewhere you just wouldn’t go.
Land and building use changes a lot about a city and each persona may feel different about their experiences.
You write very well.
