NOLLI MAP

THE ADELAIDE BIOMED CITY IS ONE OF THE LARGEST MULTI-DISCIPLINARY HEALTH AND BIOMED PRECINCTS IN THE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE. LOCATED IN THE HEART OF THE CITY, IT HOUSES THE ROYAL ADELAIDE HOSPITAL, THE SAHMRI (SOUTH AUSTRALIA HEALTH AND MEDICAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE) AND SHARED EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES FOR THREE OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA’S LEADING UNIVERSITIES. A NEW SAHMRI 2 BUILDING IS ALSO PROPOSED. THIS PRECINCT PROVIDES ADELAIDE WITH AN INTEGRATED ENVIRONMENT CENTRED AROUND HEALTH, EDUCATION AND RESEARCH, AND HAS LAID STRONG FOUNDATIONS WITHIN SOUTH AUSTRALIA’S HEALTH INDUSTRY. THIS REPORT WILL ANALYSE THE EXISTING URBAN PRECINCT, AND WILL PROPOSE CHANGES TO THE URBAN DESIGN, TO FURTHER CONNECT THIS PRECINCT WITH THE PEOPLE OF ADELAIDE.

1. ROYAL ADELAIDE HOSPITAL

THE HOSPITAL SPANS THE EQUIVALENT OF THREE CITY BLOCKS AND ITS SITE CONTAINS APPROXIMATELY FOUR HECTARES OF LANDSCAPED PARKS AND INTERNAL GREEN SPACE. IT FEATURES OVER 70 COURTYARDS, TERRACES AND SKY GARDENS (SA HEALTH, 2012).

3. PROPOSED SAHMRI 2 BUILDING

THE PROPSED BUILDING WILL ALLOW FOR FURTHER MEDICAL RESEARCH WITHIN THE PRECINCT. IT IS EXPECTED TO BE COMPLETED IN 2021 (WOODS BAGOT, 2018).

4. ADELAIDE HEALTH & MEDICAL SCIENCES (AHMS) BUILDING THE 12-STOREY BUILDING PROVIDES SCIENCE AND EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES FOR THE UNIVERSITY OF ADELAIDE.

EVIDENTLY, THERE IS A WIDE AVAILABILITY OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT MODES WITHIN THIS PRECINCT - TRAIN, TRAM AND BUS. THE PRECINCT HAS STRONG VEHICULAR ACCESS ALONG NORTH TERRACE, AND USES GEORGE STREET AS AN ARTERY TO GAIN FURTHER ACCESS TO FACILITIES. ADELAIDE’S CITY CENTRE IS WITHIN WALKING DISTANE T0 THE PRECINCT, THUS ENCOURAGING WALKABILITY AND THE USE OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT. THE PRECINCT, HOWEVER, LACKS CONNECTIVITY AND WAYFINDING TO ITS SURROUNDING LANDMARKS AND PUBLIC SPACES. THE ROYAL ADELAIDE HOSPITAL PARTICULARLY LACKS FORMAL THOROUGHFAIRS BETWEEN BOTH OF ITS SIDES, AND HAS NO CONNECTION TO THE ADJACENT RIVERSIDE WHICH IS SEGREGATED BY THE RAILWAY. ALTHOUGH THE RAILWAY RUNS ALONGSIDE THE HOSPITAL, THERE IS NO RAILWAY STATION WITHIN THE PRECINCT.

A LACK OF INTEGRATED PUBLIC TRANSPORT CONNECTION IS THE RESULT OF THE ABSENCE OF A RAILWAY STATION WITHIN THE BIOMED PRECINCT. CURRENTLY, TRAIN CUSTOMERS CAN ONLY ACCESS THE PRECINCT FROM MILE END AND ADELAIDE RAILWAY STATIONS WHICH ARE HIGHLIGHTED IN THE DIAGRAMS ABOVE. THE CREATION OF A NEW RAILWAY STATION WILL CREATE DIRECT ACCESS TO THE PRECINCT, AND WILL BECOME THE JUNCTION STATION BETWEEN ALL OF ADELAIDE’S RAIL CORRIDORS. ON A LARGER SCALE, IT CREATES AN INTEGRATED TRANSPORT HUB WITH THE EXISTING TRAM AND BUS STATIONS. EVIDENTLY, CONNECTING THE BIOMED CITY TO THE WIDER AREAS OF ADELAIDE WILL FURTHER ENCOURAGE THE USE OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT WITHIN THE FUTURE.

IN THE FUNCTIONAL MAP ABOVE, THE BIOMED CITY CAN BE CONSIDERED AS THE HEART OR FOCAL POINT OF THE AREA. THIS HEALTH PRECINCT IS SURROUNDED BY OTHER FUNCTIONAL AREAS, PARTICULARLY ADELAIDE’S COMMERCIAL CITY CENTRE, EXTENSIVE RECREATIONAL GREEN SPACE AND A SELECTION OF EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES. THESE AREAS PREDOMINANTLY CREATE CIVIC SPACES, SO IT IS IMPORTANT TO CONSIDER THESE WHEN CREATING A MORE CONNECTED TRANSITION OF SPACES BETWEEN THE BIOMED CITY AND ITS SURROUNDINGS.

MANY SIGNIFICANT LANDMARKS SURROUNDING THE BIOMED CITY HAVE PLAYED INTEGRAL ROLES IN SHAPING ADELAIDE’S CULTURAL, HISTORIC AND GEOGRAPHIC CONTEXT AND, THUS, THE OVERALL AMBIENCE. URBAN THEORIST KEVIN LYNCH ARGUES THAT PEOPLE IN URBAN ENVIRONMENTS, SUCH AS THE BIOMED CITY, ORIENT THEMSELVES ACCORDING TO A SERIES OF MENTAL MAPS. HIS UNDERLYING THEME ‘THE IMAGE OF THE CITY’ RELATES TO THE EXTENT TO WHICH THE CITYSCAPE CAN BE READ OR INTERPRETED BY ITS USERS. LYNCH EXAMINES HOW USERS ENGAGE WITH THE CITY THROUGH WAYFINDING. THIS CAN BE ACHIEVED THROUGH THE ORGANISATION OF URBAN ELEMENTS - PATHS, CITY EDGES, DISTRICTS, NODES AND LANDMARKS (LYNCH, 1960).THE DIAGRAM ON THE RIGHT DEMONSTRATES THE ORGANISATION OF PATHWAYS BETWEEN EACH LANDMARK OR MONUMENT, WHICH CREATES A SERIES OF URBAN NODES AROUND THE BIOMED PRECINCT. EVIDENTLY, THE SERIES OF PATHS APPEARS DISORGANISED AND DO NOT FOLLOW LINEAR AXIS. THEREFORE THIS LACK OF ORGANISATION CAN DISTORT THE WAY IN WHICH THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT CAN BE PERCEIVED.

LANDMARKS MAP

AN APPROXIMATE 300,000 PRISONERS PASSED THROUGH THE GAOL DURING ITS OPERATION. TODAY, IT OPERATES AS A MUSEUM AS A POPULAR TOURIST DESTINATION (DEPARTMENT FOR ENVIRONMENT AND WATER, 2014).

THE PARK FEATURES VARIOUS SPORTING FIELDS THAT FACILITIES SPORT SUCH AS AFL, CRICKET, TENNIS AND LACROSSE. THE INDIGENOUS NAME TRANSLATES TO NATIVE PINE PLACE AND REFLECTS ON THE PARK’S NATURAL VEGETATION. GLADYS ELPHICK WAS A SIGNIFICANT KAURNA ELDER WHO BECAME FOUNDING PRESIDENT OF THE COUNCIL OF ABORIGINAL WOMEN OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA FROM 1964-73. SHE WAS A STRONG ADVOCATE FOR WOMEN’S RIGHTS WITHIN KAURNA, AND THE PARK IS A RECOGNITION OF HER POSITIVE INFLUENCES DURING AUSTRALIA’S GENDER EQUALITY MOVEMENTS (CITY OF ADELAIDE, 2019).

ADELAIDE GAOL (ADELAIDEGAOL.ORG)

POSSUM PARK / PIRLTAWARDLI

POSSUM PARKS SITS ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE RIVER TO THE HOSPITAL. THE TRADITIONAL NAME TRANSLATES TO POSSUM PLACE AND BRINGS PEOPLE TOGETHER THROUGH ITS 18-HOLE GOLF COURSE. IT HAS MANY PATHS AND PUBLIC SPACES FOR USERS TO OCCUPY AND INTERACT, AS WELL AS STRONG VIEWS TOWARDS ADELAIDE CITY (CITY OF ADELAIDE, 2019).

GLADYS ELPHICK PARK (GAUDIO, 2015)

LIGHT SQUARE / WAUWI

THIS PUBLIC SQUARE FEATURES A MEMORIAL MONUMENT IN HONOUR OF COLONEL WILLIAM LIGHT, WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE 1837 ADELAIDE PLAN. THE SQUARE ALSO RECOGNISES SIGNIFICANT FEMALE KAURNA ELDER, WAUWI.

LIGHT SQUARE MONUMENT (CITY OF ADELAIDE)

IN 2016, THE CITY OF ADELAIDE INSTALLED A RAINBOW PRIDE WALK TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND CELEBRATE THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE LGBTIQ COMMUNITY (CITY OF ADELAIDE, 2019). THIS SPACE IS INTEGRAL IN PROMOTING INCLUSIVITY, DIVERSITY AND SOCIAL CONNECTION THROUGHOUT ADELAIDE.

ADELAIDE GAOL

NODES DIAGRAM

THE GAOL IS ONE OF ADELAIDE’S OLDEST REMAINING COLONIAL BUILDINGS AND PLAYS A CRUCIAL ROLE IN THE CITY’S HISTORY. IT WAS COMMISSIONED IN 1840 AND COMPLETED YEARS LATER, WITH MANY ADDITIONS AND ALTERATIONS MADE DURING ITS TIME.

ADELAIDE CONVENTION CENTRE

THE ADELAIDE CONVENTION CENTRE WAS THE FIRST PURPOSE-BUILT CONVENTION CENTRE IN AUSTRALIA (ADELAIDE CONVENTION CENTRE, 2011). LOCATED TO THE EAST OF THE BIOMED CITY ALONG NORTH TERRACE, IT WAS CONSTRUCTED OVER THE EXISTING ADELAIDE RAILWAY STATION. IT HAS BEEN REBUILT AND EXTENDED SINCE ITS ORIGINAL CONSTRUCTION IN 1987.

PUBLIC SPACE BETWEEN CONVENTION CENTRE AND RIVER (DAVIDSSON, 2018)

THE MOST RECENT DEVELOPMENT IN 2014 WAS DESCRIBED AS A PERFECT PIECE OF MODERN ARCHITECTURE DUE TO ITS CONTEMPORARY NATURE THAT STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL CHARACTER (WHATELEY, 2014). SPORTING FANS CAN ACCESS THE OVAL BY VEHICLE, PUBLIC TRANSPORT AND A FOOTBRIDGE PROVIDING ACCESS ACROSS THE BRIDGE FROM THE CITY. THE OVAL CONTINUES TO FOSTER AND DEVELOP ADELAIDE’S STRONG SPORTING CULTURE TODAY AND REMAINS A VITAL LANDMARK OF THE CITY.

ADELAIDE OVAL

ADELAIDE OVAL IS A MULTIPURPOSE SPORTS GROUND LOCATED IN THE PARKLANDS BETWEEN THE CITY AND NORTH ADELAIDE. IT HAS A RICH SPORTING HISTORY DATING BACK TO 1871 WHEN IT WAS FIRST ESTABLISHED. OVER THE CENTURIES, THE GROUND HAS UNDERGONE CONSTANT EXPANSION AND MODERNISATION TO ACCOMMODATE MORE PEOPLE.

THE FACILITY SHARES A SITE WITH THE OLD AND NEW SOUTH AUSTRALIA STATE PARLIAMENT HOUSES, THE FESTIVAL CENTRE, THE ADELAIDE EXHIBITION HALL, ADELAIDE CASINO AND ADELAIDE RAILWAY STATION (SOM, 2012). EVIDENTLY, THE CONVENTION CENTRE PLAYS A SIGNIFICANT ROLE AS A PART OF THE CULTURAL PRECINCT OF ADELAIDE, AS WELL AS RECONNECTING SIGNIFICANT BUILDINGS TO THE WATERFRONT.

CITY PATTERN DEMONSTRATING ORIGINAL TRADITIONAL PARADIGM

MOBILITY ANALYSIS MAP DEMONSTRATING POST-MODERN PARADIGM

LIGHT’S ORIGINAL 1837 PLAN OF ADELAIDE FOLLOWS AN ORGANISED GRID SYSTEM THAT FOLLOWS A TRADITIONAL PARADIGM, AND HAS EVOLVED OVER THE CENTURIES TO WHAT ADELAIDE IS TODAY. THIS CAN BE EXAMINED IN THE CITY PATTERN ON THE LEFT. CITIES THAT FOLLOW TRADITIONAL PARADIGMS ARE TYPICALLY WALKABLE, COMPACT, DENSE, AND SOCIALLY INTEGRATED. THEY ENCOURAGE DIVERSE GROUPS OF PEOPLE TO SHARE AND INTERACT WITH THE SAME SPACE, CREATING AN INTEGRATED ENVIRONMENT (GUARALDA, 2019). THE NEW BIOMED DEVELOPMENT HAS SHIFTED ITS SURROUNDINGS INTO A POST-MODERN PARADIGM, WHEREBY IT IS ORGANISED IN CONTIGUOUS PRECINCTS, WHICH WAS MADE EVIDENT IN THE FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS. THE MOBILITY MAP TO THE RIGHT DEMONSTRATES THIS. THE HEALTH PRECINCT FILTERS INTO THE COMMERCIAL PRECINCT OF ADELAIDE, WHICH DEMONSTRATES SPECIFIC FUNCTIONS. THESE FUNCTIONS ARE SURROUNDED BY VARIOUS INFRASTRUCTURES, ARTERIAL ROADS SUCH AS NORTH TERRACE AND PUBLIC GREEN SPACES, SUCH AS LIGHT SQUARE AND SURROUNDING PARKLANDS (GUARALDA, 2019).

INTEGRATED PUBLIC TRANSPORT

THE CREATION OF PUBLIC SPACES WITHIN AND AROUND THE HEALTH PRECINCT WILL FURTHER ENCOURAGE SOCIAL INTERACTION AND INCLUSIVITY. CREATING THIS SERIES OF SPACES WILL ENHANCE THE IMAGE OF THE CITY AND PEOPLE’S ENGAGEMENT WITH THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT, THUS DRAWING SOME PARALLELS TO LYNCH’S THEORY (LYNCH, 1960). THE CREATION OF NEW PUBLIC SPACES AT THE ENTRY TO THE HOSPITAL CREATES AN INVITING ENVIRONMENT THAT CAN BE USED BY BOTH HOSPITAL VISITORS AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC.

THE ORGANISATION OF URBAN ELEMENTS, MAINLY PATHS AND NODES, HAS CREATED A STRONGER CONNECTION BETWEEN THE HEALTH PRECINCT AND SIGNIFICANT AREAS OF THE CITY. NEW PEDESTRIAN BRIDGES NOW CONNECT THE PRECINCT TO THE HISTORIC ADELAIDE GAOL, LIGHT SQUARE PARK AND SURROUNDING PARKLANDS. IN PARTICULAR, THE CREATION OF THE NEW RAILWAY STATION ALLOWS THE PEDESTRIAN ACCESS PLATFORM TO FUNCTION AS A CONNECTION TO THE RIVERSIDE, WHICH WAS ONCE SEGREGATED

BY THE RAILWAY INFRASTRUCTURE. THE IMPROVED CONNECTIVITY FOLLOWS A MODERN PARADIGM, AIMING TO RESTORE THE VALUES AND PRINCIPLES OF A TRADITIONAL PARADIGM (GUARALDA, 2019).

THE CREATION OF THE NEW RAILWAY STATION WILL IMPROVE OVERALL ACCESSIBILITY TO THE PRECINCT, AND WILL ENCOURAGE MORE TO USE PUBLIC TRANSPORT. IT BUILDS UPON THE EXISTING TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE THAT CONNECTS THE CITY TO ITS WIDER SURROUNDINGS. THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE EXISTING NORTH TERRACE TRAM STATION INTO A BUS AND TRAM (BAT) STATION WILL FURTHER ENHANCE THE INTEGRATION OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT. THIS INTEGRATED SYSTEM SEEKS TO RESTORE THE CORE VALUES OF A TRADITIONAL PARADIGM BY CREATING A COMPACT, MIXED USE TRANSPORT SCHEME THAT ALSO PROMOTES WALKABILITY AND SOCIAL INTEGRATION.
