SITE ANALYSIS OPEN SPACE INDUSTRIAL COMMERCIAL UTILITY RESIDENTIAL SITE LOCATION TRANSPORTATION

N IN-BETWEEN SPACE Socio-spatial fragmentation and urban spatial segregation, divides communities. Underutilized, overgrown in-between spaces only add to the division, and in the sense of the Farmingdale Project, an unintentional by-product of industrial/suburban programs in close proximity. The byproduct of this decades-long encroachment/recession process is in fact the site for Project 3—an unsed, leftover space. The site for Project 3 is near but not connected to suburban communities, in the middle of the Farmingdale Industrial Complex, tangent Republic Airport and a strip mall.

The site itself is an elongated, narrow rectangle with a subtle taper to its eastern border. Generally speaking, the space presents several design challenges to a residential developer: (a) narrow site limits programs and circulation methods; (b) noise levels from the airport, railroad, and commercial activity limit residential marketability; (c) zoning restrictions limit structure height and force lateral sprawl.

HOUSING DILEMMA / DISPLACEMENT NYC Public Housing is undergoing an unsustainable tenant displacement initiative as a result of building decay and neglect, a product of federal de-investment, racial tension, and privatization. The City of New York is displacing tenants one building at a time, leveraging relationships with private landowners and replacing the Section 9 distinction with Section 8—privately owned land, leased by the State.

In lieu of this crisis, a Long Island developer has decided to offer a Section 8 Housing opportunity to NYC Public Housing. By taking this underutilized Farmingdale site, the problem of housing will be resolved using a challenging, but affordable Industrial, in-between space.

MASSING CONCEPT The 20 x 40 rectilinear platform looks to effectively respond to both the project constraints--apartment size and program variation--and affordable housing narrative/practicality dilemma. An initial mass pairing that creates an offset served as our foundation for interior and exterior space and program establishment.

FIRST FLOOR MASSING Combinations of the original 20 x 40 rectangle. Primitive examples of overlap as a means to create new interior programs; responses to project constraints.

SITE MASS DEVELOPMENT From top to bottom, a gradual evolution of the site massing.

Single floors become double storied and the site sprawls West to East. Frontage is made available for parking around the cadence of each building.

FACADE DETAIL In an effort to improve a boring, flat building face, an interweaving pattern was chosen. Not subjected to structural load, this pattern can be made using recycled aggregates.

Hoping to inspire a communal togetherness among the tennants, the interweave facade is a reminder of social cohesion in practice.
