Envisioning the future of manufacturing
GSAPP 2018 Summer
Broadway Junction, New York, USA
Huiwon Hong, Angela Crisostomo, Bohong Jhaang
“How does Broadway Junction fit in the new manufacturing eco-system?”
In the context of NYC, Broadway Junction has a unique opportunity to capitalize on New Manufacturing because of its : Being at the next to 6 train lines (A, C, J, Z, L, and the LIRR); Proximity to JFK airport (16 minutes away); Large demographic of young people; The East NY IBZ and large amounts of underutilized square footage. We propose to develop an education, technology, and manufacturing hub at the heart of Broadway Junction that capitalizes on these assets. By doing so we can also address the connectivity issues in this area and connect Brownsville and the East NY IBZ better to Broadway Junction Terminal Complex.
Our goal was to articulate in the best way we can, with what skills and tools we had at our disposal - a vision, a strategy, and a proposal that addresses the specific needs of a the Broadway Junction community by a simple reassessment of the neighborhood’s assets. The communities around Broadway Junction have value to offer the neighborhoods around it, the city, and the world at large. What we realized is that a place like Broadway Junction could be looked at a variety of different orientations and angles - transportation, education, industry, housing; and at different scales - neighborhood, city/regional, and world. And by doing so, we could look deeper into what is possible. Then by setting aside limitations of comprehensiveness, becoming specific, and perhaps even embracing biases towards certain issues, in our case, education and manufacturing; we could enable both a long-term vision, and the capacity to move forwardwith incremental but purposeful initiative.

REGIONAL CONNECTIONS
In the larger context of New York City, recent trends indicate a growth of 3,900 jobs (from 2011-2016) created in particular sub-sectors driven by new types of manufacturing. Public and private investment is moving in the direction of developing tech and manufacturing campuses at Bush Terminal, Sunset Park, Brooklyn Navy Yard, among others. Our question is how does Broadway Junction fit in this new ecosystem?
We tried to solve two primary connectivity issues in the area : re-design and rehabilitation of the LIRR Tunnel to connect to Brownsville, and repurposing abandoned MTA structure as pedestrian walkway/elevated plaza to connect to the East NY IBZ. We’ve thought carefully about the placement of public plazas, creating connections between the various uses.

Food-bay
A new food infrastructure for the Hudson Valley
GSAPP 2018 Fall
Hudson Valley & City of Hudson, NY, USA
Huiwon Hong , Jianqi Li, Tanaya Kadam, Zeiyi Jiang
“How can we reclaim once pioneering identities of the Hudson waterfront?”
FOOD BAY is a new model for the regional foodshed, joining small-scale farms with local and regional markets. Since an increasing number of farms in the Hudson Valley suffer from insufficient or obsolete infrastructure as well as lack of affordable access to marketing opportunities, the HUDSON CITY FOOD-BAY proposes a new sharing economy, sited along the historic waterfront, to enhance and join farming, production, and distribution. A new food hub benefits local residents and farmers, as well as tourists, enhances waterfront viability and, at the regional scale, sets up a distribution system using the Hudson River once again as useful infrastructure.
The Hudson City Food-Bay creates a new hub or node in the regional food system. It connects individual growers with distribution operations at the waterfront. More broadly, the Hub opens up the bottleneck between farmers and markets by creating shared processing and distribution operations, enabling micro-food businesses, teaching new food-related skills, and offering locals and visitors access to healthy, locally-produced food. The Food-Bay dramatically activates the Hudson City waterfront and reconnects the city with the river. At the regional scale, the FOOD-BAY “Floating Farmers Market” connects Columbia County farmers to other cities in the Valley and even to New York City, creating a more diverse and sustainable HV food system.

EXISTING AND SUGGESTED DISTRIBUTION NETWORK
The number of small farms has been declined. Since 1950s, around 60% of them have vanished. And still, small farms profit is continuously declining. However, we found that there is a lot of market opportunity around the Hudson Valley. Especially, New York city’s food market is projected to increase by 60% in 2035. We would like to turn the separated travel into combined inter-valley network, so small farms to be more competent in the large market and fill the gap between the small farmers and the market.
EXISTING AND SUGGESTED FOOD JOURNEY
We looked into the food journey from small farms to market, and we figured out three major problems there. There is waste of food because lack of storage and processing facility, and lack of market. Besides, they are going to the market separately. Therefore, we are suggesting sharing economy among small farmers. Small farmers can keep their food at sharing storage and process it to keep it longer or to add value. Based on gathered resources, they can travel together when they have a common market that can decrease total amount of travel to the market.

We are suggesting market place by barge so it can travel along the river and then stop by cities within the river such as kingston poughkeepsie and newburgh. Collecting and selling products from each city. And finally new york city as well. It can stop at west harlem pier which is near the park but barely used. or chelsea pier which is more vibrant. It opens up opportunities to access much bigger markets for small farmers.

We have proposed a weekly schedule for picking up fruits and vegetables with our shared truck system throughout Columbia county and others have the option of dropping directly to the hub. The hub has a shared storage and processing facility. The products can be stored for months with cold & freezing storage options. The first step processing would cut/wash and pack the cucumber, which would be taken further for making value-added processing for making pickles. These bottles pickles or fresh cucumbers would be locally distributed through farmers market, institutions and would further be regionally distributed by our food barge.

TRANSECT : STORY OF A SMALL FARMER
In terms of feasibility, there are several agencies decided to invest and help Hudson valley to operate projects for small farmers. For example, Hudson valley agribusiness can invest first-step processing facility. The kitchen incubators will get fund from regional economic development councils and they can be rented by farmers. These programmings have co-benefits to our several actors including small farmers, local residents, visitors, and agriculture industry.

“What is the new language for the high-density development?”
This project aspires to be a coherent and imageable urbanistic form in a highly irregular and fragmented urban landscape. Bigness and coherence is assumed, as the site is being located in Singapore where centralised planning and organisation is continuously perpetuated. The project desires to prepare for an incoming, new and restructured society that is based on effectiveness, driven by two major trends observed in the current Post-Fordist economy.
Firstly, a society that is experiencing the collapse of hierarchical structures is seeing more integrated and interconnected flows of capital and information, flattening nuances and differences created by the order of previous Fordist economy. Secondly, the affective and the emotive induced by play is increasingly integrated into the production of value, resulting in a seamless integration of work and play that is defined by characteristics of ephemerality and indeterminacy. As such, this project has assumed predications through the flattening of the site and strives to accentuate and emphasize networks through connections. It is through these connections that latent activities and connections of the new society, white collared workers and most importantly the other are expressed. It is in hopes of this expression that it facilitates the creation of a new ‘language’ that is yet to come.

EXPLODED AXONOMETRY OF A TYPICAL URBAN UNIT
We suggested a new urban form with the girder structure, making double layered land use. The base public space is common ground open for the public which contains original characteristics of Jurong East. Space between the structural girders will be filled with big and small businesses. Shared spaces above girder will be used for cultural events.

STRATEGIES
To bring back the commons in the new CBD, the site is flattened by imposing a virtual line tangent to the MRT track in every 80m interval. Structural grid of 20m column grid is further introduced in between the tangent lines on which girders and other developments grow on this grid. Pedestrian network in the form of fingers and spine permeates in between the structural grid, connecting the site from on end to another. To put the emphasis on the commons, ground floor is given back to them, where spaces for communities are proliferated on this level while car circulation is restricted only at certain part to maximise spaces for the pedestrians.

Democratic City
Suggestion of the new National Assembly Building
Undergraduate, 2017 Spring
National Assembly District, Seoul, South Korea
Huiwon Hong
“Where is the place for the politics of common citizens?”
“Democracy Dies in Darkness” has been the Washington Post’s new slogan. This message expresses the global crisis of democracy. In his book Post-Democracy1, British political scientist Colin Crouch says that modern democracy has changed in accordance with the economic logic of neo-liberalism and is no longer functioning as a true democracy. In fact, the current forms and procedures create a paradox where the elected government betrays the people’s purpose in creating a democratic process.
To overcome the crisis of democracy, many scholars view citizens’ active political participation as the top priority. Although various institutional devices have been established for this purpose, I believe that the realization of democracy occurs through the process of perceiving and practicing citizenship consciously and unconsciously in a myriad of habitual practices that are developed in the background of various urban spaces. We need to consider the physical environment for these practices. In what spaces in the city should political actions take place to revive the flame of democracy that is eroding in liberalism? This project sees democracy as a matter of spatial practice and presents the question of what the desirable political space under a representative democracy should be.

Reinvention of Indian heritage in Barcelona
Undergraduate, 2017 Fall
Barcelona, Spain
Huiwon Hong
“What is the modern equivalent of the old heritage?”
Barcelona provides an excellent case study of many major themes of urban development and change. The foundation for Barcelona’s successful urban planning has been the city’s Eixample district, a series of 520 street superblocks planned by Ildefons Cerdá. However, some of his ideas were not properly implemented. In particular, the plan intended a garden city, for which two sides of each low-rise block would be left open for small parks and greenery. In the twentieth century, with increasing population pressure and the need for car parking, most of these open areas were developed and infilled. Most of the blocks were increased in height to a uniform eight stories by developers intent on maximizing their incomes.
This project is a virtual proposal to change private open space closed by Barcelona urban block into public open space by inverting its form. It is inspired by Humayun’s tomb, which is the architectural reference of this project. The tomb of the Mughal Emperor Humayun in Delhi, India, was built in 1570. It has particular cultural significance, as it was the first garden-tomb on the Indian subcontinent. It inspired several major architectural innovations, culminating in the construction of the Taj Mahal. In this project, the basement of the tomb was rebuilt as a shopping mall and the main building as a hotel. The solid, thick wall of the tomb became space. I have simplified the intricate shape of the tomb by removing unnecessary parts. In general, the project shows the possibilities of an old architectural heritage that could inspire new ideas about current urban issues.

The Humayun’s tomb, built in 1570, is in Delhi, India. It is the first of the grand dynastic mausoleums that became synonyms of Mughal architecture and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1993. The height of the basement part is 7m and there are tombs of aristocrats. The central octagonal chamber has the tomb of Humayun, which is encompassed by octagonal chambers at the diagonals which have tombs of his family.

BARCELONA URBAN GRID
Ildefons Cerda worked on a grid-based plan that would come to be known as the Eixample. However, the area did not develop as Cerda had originally planned. What began as a utopian master plan championing publicly accessible green space has today become an enclosed and privatized neighborhood specifically lacking this publicly accessible green space. What if we re-imagine the superblock with the old heritage of India?
57 56
Even though Humayun’s tomb has a high vertical void, the main building of Humayun’s tomb is one story. I transformed it into a fou r-story building by dividing the plan and stacking it vertically. There are sub-centers and main centers at Humayun’s tomb. I made accumulated sub-centers become the new main center by setting reference points at the sub-center. The combined line becomes a base plan of the new design. Interestingly, the combined version still contains the characteristics of the original plan such as centralized circulation and the relationship between the main center and sub-centers.

BLOCK SUGGESTION _ INSIDE OUT
While having similar FAR, the inverted block makes entirely different spaces. The inverted block makes an open space for the public, while the Barcelona block makes an enclosed open space for its residents. Even though each has its own merits, it will lead to more diverse activities in the city with the new type of public open space in the full Barcelona blocks.

DEVELOPMENT OF MANZANA BLOCK FROM PUBLIC TO PRIVATE
Cerda’s theoretically planned, two or three sided, 20-meter high Manzana lacked profitability, the majority of the blocks were soon built up on all four sides while far exceeding their initially planned height. Likewise, Manzana blocks which were designed as public facilities were instead developed without regard to the plan: private leasable space. Later, the Manzana blocks were further built up. In complete contrast to Cerda’s original vision, the central courtyards were often closed off and are now commonly used as a car park.*

The base plan is simplified, considering how to include Humayun’s original plan. I extracted the three characteristics of the original plan and applied it to the base plan. A thick, solid wall, became a new space in the transformed plan. The main rooms became a void connecting the four-story building vertically. A centralized circulation applied to the new building gives the strong identity that the building is a modernized version of Humayun’s tomb.

Korean-style Tesselation Pattern
This project started from the idea of making a Korean-style tessellation pattern. I choose Chiwoo Cheonwang, a traditional Korean monster. Koreans use it as a symbol of the Red Devils, its national soccer team, since it is honored as the God of War. Using the Grasshopper algorithm, I completed the tessellation pattern. Then, I developed it into a moving facade.
