Thank you, Phish, for Icculus.
The block of our site for the design project is a typical NY block near the park. To maximize the built output, the zoning laws for setbacks are pushed to the limit. Nearly all of the buildings there run right up from the edge of the property line, creating this daunting threshold. For now, I’m calling it an urban edge.
Urban Edge
The residents of this area are affluent, and I would imagine that they may actually covet this urban edge – it maintains a semblance of privacy. When you can live so close to Central Park in Manhattan, you can treat the park as your own public, outdoor space (your own back yard, if you will). But the most interesting buildings in the immediate context (found on the same block) broke this edge at the street plane. Without even entering said buildings, you could see how the non-conformity to the plane of all other buildings created space immediately identifiable as entrance. External material treatment also denoted the program of space – public entrance.

In plan, the site is great…you can see all of these interstitial spaces that are used for maintenance or back doors. I think there’s a real potential to use this space at other times. So for now, at least I identified it.
Interstitial Spaces (in red)
My initial site analysis was somewhat haphazard. I indiscriminately broke the urban edge at the street plane, initially starting out by breaking away from the site edges to the adjoining openings and documenting the leftover mass between and around buildings at the height of the tallest structure within the immediate context.

Next, I utilized some of the intersections of experience – the lines of sight, the lines of sun, potential circulatory paths – to carve away at the site, creating hints of structure intertwined with a weave of solid and void. I only posted on initial (read: boring) study of the solar condition.

Now it’s time for a deeper structural and programmatic look at things. How do the NYPD Mounted Unit training facility and the Neighborhood Athletic Facility relate to one another and the world outside? Right now I think they are relatively private entities, keeping in tune with the greater harmony established in this neighborhood. It’s not elitist; it just goes against the larger idea of the urban setting here. But only time will tell…

The kilogram is the base SI unit for the measurement of weight and mass. This is derived on the basis of the fixed numeric value of the Planck constant which is roughly equivalent to 6.62607015 × 10-34. The term kilogram is derived from the French term Kilogramme, which translates to thousand in English. The kilogram is the only measurement unit that uses its very own SI prefix. Previously, a kilogram was defined as being equal to the mass of one liter of water at freezing point.

is a word puzzle game and a text visualization tool that was created by Jonathan Feinberg in 2008. It generates “word clouds” from a block of text by displaying the most frequently used words in a unique, eye-catching layout. The size of each word in the cloud represents its frequency in the text, with the most frequently used words appearing in larger font sizes.
