G IN THE CITY CHAPTER 1

WORKING IN THE CITY

URBAN DESIGN WORKS

...developing livable, regionally conceived, dense, mixed use, walkable & transit oriented urban centers, while respecting the sensitive ecological habitats ...

The urban design projects presented in this chapter show a line of thought that I have pursued for last two years in regards to urbanism.

This approach believes in developing regionally conceived, mixed use, walk-able, transit oriented urban centers while respecting the sensitive ecological habitats.

It is an approach that looks at the city as a setting for economic, social and ecological sustainability. It trusts in the power of human concentration to reduce the per capita impact on the overall environment and believes in design to make the concentrated centers more livable and enjoyable.

Aerial perspective of the proposed mixed use, transit oriented urban village

H.O.U.S.E.S. is the winning entry for the 2011 ULI / Gerald D. Hines Urban Design Competition. The competition brief called for maximizing the transit opportunity near Mt. Baker light rail station which also has a major bus transit center.

Transforming automobile oriented Rainier Avenue, MLK Jr. Way and its surroundings into a pedestrian friendly, urban public realm is one of the main objectives of the project.

This design tries to explore the idea of Health Oriented Urbanism in a holistic sustainable way trying to address community, economical, environmental and individual health.

The site is situated in one of the most diverse zip codes of the country with immigrant population from Asia, Mexico and Europe. The design builds on this neighborhood diversity and emphasizes affordability that allows for mix of housing types for various income levels. It also supports local business including ethnic restaurants in the Cuisine Plaza. A system community gardens which allows the community to engage with nature is envisioned to support the locally owned ethnic restaurants.

Closing the various sustainability loops on site is also an important feature of this urban design proposal.

Buick City Mixed-Use Urban District, Flint, MI, USA / 2010

Aerial perspective of Buick City mixed-use urban district

Buick city today represents a combination of a monument and a void. A monument in the memories of all the citizens of Flint for the factory that once stood and a void that divides the surrounding neighborhoods along with the freeway.

This urban design proposal is a response to the plans of setting up of a new logistics center. Expansion of three main institutional campuses including The University of Michigan Flint campus, Mott Community College and Kettering University is also seen as a catalyst for new development.

The urban design proposal aims to connect the two sides of the void by extending the city street grid through it. It also establishes guidelines for dense, walkable, neighborhood design that caters for mix of uses, including variety of housing types, office blocks, institutional buildings and light industrial startups.

These interventions would help turn Buick City from the void it is today to the center of verve.

The project also focusses on developing detail design for an urban block. The study resulted in design development of a typical residential block. The block design builds upon several features of existing blocks in Flint, while incorporating additional aspects of sustainable urbanism.

Two different types of streets have two different building typologies fronting it. Four storey apartment buildings face the wider avenues, while two storey row houses front the narrow residential streets.

Each row house has a backyard with a car garage accessed by an alleyway. This typology offers an better alternative to the existing single family detached houses with 2 car garages fronting the streets.

Each block also has a central community square accessed by a pedestrian pathway from residential streets.

Urban morphology of Ann Arbor. The Huron River and proposed riverfront development sites

Fuller Road Transit Oriented Development, Ann Arbor, MI, USA / 2010

Site Model

Fuller Road TOD is part of the new transit development master plan for Ann Arbor.

The new Amtrak station is the starting point of this process.

This proposal looks at the project as a larger urban design vision wherein it claims that the Fuller Road Transit Hub should be conceived as a transit oriented sustainable, mixed use development on a broader scale. Rather than merely a transit station, as it is being currently envisioned.

Transit center is the gateway to Ann Arbor and Huron valley river-front park should be the face of it.

The proposal has three main objectives : Present a sustainable vision for Ann Arbor’s progress through alternative means of transport and its supporting development.

Sensitive urban design that responds to ecology and environment of Huron river front and Fuller park.

Reclaiming the river-front for it’s city : Development of Huron river-front as public open space.

New mixed-use development at the open ended corners. New infill helps complete block corners and activate the sidewalks at intersections.

New streets added to create short blocks, helping the new development to be a coherent part of surrounding fabric of the neighborhood.

New residential development between the existing towers adds to the street frontage, creates active street walls to animate the sidewalks.

New courtyard development includes bio retention ponds, geo thermal heat generators. These also act as landscape elements to activate the now dead courtyards.

Perspective sketch showing the new urban in-fill and streets

The focus area project within the East River waterfront master plan proposes to retrofit the existing superblock public housing project to connect with the surrounding city fabric.

Super-block

This is achieved by piercing the super-block to create more streets and intersections along with opening up the interiors of the super-block to

the city.

It plans for mixed use in-fill development to activate the street edges. It explores the opportunities to retrofit the existing residential towers in the super-block to help enable mixed use New Streets

along the street edge.

The project creates a model for holistic sustainability through use of bio-swales, retention ponds, infiltration basins and geothermal energy generators in the block courtyards along with urban farming in community gardens

This project proposes an alternate strategy for urban development in Rosario, which currently is seeking to develop post industrial sites along the riverfront with modernist super block planning. This site is an old railway yard that served the industries.

The urban design proposal seeks to seamlessly integrate the historic Pichincha district, south of the project site, with the new developments located to the north in Puerto Norte. It is achieved through extending the existing grid through the site to better connect with the surrounding city.

The design is focused around the proposed new train station on the site making it an inter modal transit hub for local and regional transportation.

Finally, the industrial heritage of silos and railway tracks are retained as Sites of Industrial Heritage

urban elements to produce a design that integrates both the historic and contemporary developments of Rosario into a cohesive urban fabric.

Assembly Square is a mixed use transit oriented development on ‘T’ Metro line in Boston. There are three main objectives of this project. First, to create a diverse mixed use neighborhood with connections to downtown Boston. Second, to create a sense of place that reflects the regional character. And lastly to create a network of open spaces and opening up of Mystic river front as public space.

The plan also establishes guidelines for building types, uses, street, block layouts and design for public space that gives Assembly Row its shape and character.

Connections to the immediate as well as the larger context is the common thread that binds all the architectural projects presented here.

Sensitive understanding of the way the building is set in its relation to the street, the block and the neighboring buildings has always been an important aspect of my design process.

Community Housing, Pune, MH, India / 2006

Typo-morphological study of Housing in Pune

The housing design proposal is an attempt to generate ‘A way of life’ rather than a mere housing” by emphasizing on values like community building, individual identity within the community and spontaneous social interaction.

This concept is translated into a sequence of spaces interlinked with narrow pedestrian streets which broaden out to become square and terminate into small courts and are defined by gateways and

Paars of Pune, These are public spaces where small groups congregate for socializing.

bridges.

There are pauses, points of rest and changing vistas. Which get connected to central green valley of courts.

Every apartment has an open to sky terrace which acts like a courtyard at upper levels.

The design aims to reinterpret traditional typology in more contemporary vocabulary.

Figure ground study of Pune city core (Tulshi Baugh). Narrow streets fronted by courtyard housing typology of Wadas create a urban fabric of open and built spaces.

Haryana High Court : Design Intervention to rejuvenate Capitol Complex, Chandigarh, CH, India / 2008

A separate High Court for the state of Haryana is a project set in the challenging context of Capitol Complex in Chandigarh. Capitol Complex is the image of Chandigarh which has influenced modern architecture in post-independent India.

The project address three key design issues. First, the design response to Le Corbusier’s architectural expression. Second, locating High court in Capitol Complex as part of it.

And third, the response to the context of time. Understanding that the city is not static it continues to grow along the aspirations of new generations. Yet we need to respect the past and proceed in harmony with it.

The design acts as a catalyst giving an urban edge facing the city as well as an active frontage to the south side of Capitol Complex. The Haryana High Court intervention is seen as a public space that visually connects all the icons of Capitol in a single journey across its hallways.

The site is located in south Delhi in Vasant Vihar area known for its low rise high density housing and unique topography of canyons created by human mining activity.

The site also forms the south tip of the Delhi ridge, a strong ecology created by

Figure Ground : The Built

local vegetation.

The site offers a strong context of a existing canyon, it is converted into a water retention lake along with stepped seating ghats around making an community level open space for the campus.

The whole campus is designed as one fabric, punctuated with built and unbuilt spaces as a pedestrian town for design studies. The campus is designed with a giant solar parasol that covers the buildings from hot Delhi sun as well as collects solar energy.

The Open Space

The design facilitates spontaneous interdisciplinary interaction throughout the campus.
