As this map demonstrates, there is an intense scarcity of public facilities in the immediate vicinity of Hunters Point South. Furthermore, what facilities exist, are extremely limited. My partner Kooho and I therefore included in our design a great deal of public facilities/infrastructure such as two schools, a supermarket, a public library, a farmers market, a health-care clinic and several acres of public park space. site distance perimeter community school district 30, zone 3 elementary school middle or intermediate school high school library

In considering transportation our design therefore focused on creating easy access to existing transportation as opposed to creating new transportation infrastructure. bicycle path bicycle lane bicycle route city proposed path city proposed route bicycle Shop bicycle shop with rental
