I had some pretty mixed feelings as soonest as I step foot into the site. I felt so peaceful because of the water but at the same time curious & confuse to see what its going on with the neighborhood. Everything seem to be going through a change, an evolution.

Final Site Decision

Site IV Analysis :
http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=8382924396817571991#allposts

I have chosen site 4 as my final location. Being the biggest more spacious site of them all, I think it provides me great opportunities to explode my imagination. Knowing that I want to design a sports complex facility, space would be a key factor throughout my design. This site also offers me amazing views to the tip of southern Manhattan, which I strongly want to highlight and make a focus point as well.

Typology Questions

TYPOLOGY QUESTIONS.

1.  Which building typology you are researching?

Sport facilities & Piers.

        

 2.  Why are you researching this building typology?

Being that its right on the port and having amazing views to edge and skyline of Manhattan, I think it brings a great interest and attraction to people from all New York to come and do some exercise while enjoying the view.

3.  What is the specialty of this building type you would like to research i.e.   museum for dance, school for digital media…

It will have a variety of different fields for each top sport. One mainly at the rooftop.

4.  What are the examples that you will be researching… list the examples, location and architect  (10 examples)

5. What are your goals for working on this building ?

To create an environment in which everyone can be attracted to and have a wonderful experience. By having a sports complex in Red Hook and bring more and more tourist to the neighborhood and make it the place to visit by New Yorkers. 

               

 6.  What are the program elements that you see included at this point in your building? (may  evolve once more research is done) 

A variety of fields combine with spectacular views to the city. A place designed for the comfort and enjoyment of the people. Spaces such as studios, gym and a small cafe.
