Precedent neighborhood study

Almeda, Houston 1.34 sq mi

Almeda Mall in southeast Houston was once a prosperous shopping center in the 1950s and 60s. However, in the last decade, the mall and surrounding area has faced continuous decay. Its current condition is that of a desolate landscape full of abandoned stores and empty parking lots. The life of the mall

outdoor area

From this situation, two questions arise: how can life be brought back into this and similar areas? And what do these communities need to be sustained? To answer these questions, a study was conducted which analyzed different upcoming neighborhoods around the world. These neighborhoods included Eixample in Barcelona, Colonia Roma in Mexico City, the Mission District in San Francisco, and Fitzroy in Melbourne. These neighborhoods were compared and analyzed using different variables such as density, area, walkability, outdoor space, shops/restaurants per square mile, and transportation.

area

walkability

Eixample, Barcelona A programatic formula was deduced from the neighborhood analysis and applied to the Almeda Mall site. A proportional amount of density, outdoor space, modes of transportation, shops/entertainment, and mix-use facilities are proposed in the form of a fabric that extends throughout the site. The top of the fabric provides an outdoor walkable community area while the bottom provides services needed for the community to be sustained. The height and size of the towers provides a density similar to that of the studied neighborhoods. All of this is done while preserving the existing buildings and incorporating them into the new community fabric.

olympics

Different cities who have hosted mega events, such as the Olympics and World Cup, have experienced different post-event outcomes, with some sites being redeveloped or integrated into the urban fabric successfully (as well as taking advantage of the supposed economic fortunes associated with widespread promotion/media exposure, and injection of economic activity caused by the temporary hosting of a veritable multitude), while others languish in the shadows not too long after the in-situ flame has been extinguished.Today, the facilities built specifically for Athens 04 are completely abandoned. Many of the sporting fields are overgrown with weeds and young palm trees. Swimming pools sit empty, save for wind-tossed debris, and clandestinely disposed rubbish. The once gleaming faces of the venues are not covered in illicit spray-painted messages.

FISHT .2 re-adapted stadium

moscow sochi

sochi olympic park

flood zone

This project is a proposal for the adaptive reuse of the Fisht stadium, which is the centerpiece of the Sochi Winter Olympics. It stand s out mainly not because of the design and planning aspects (which pale in comparison to some of the more iconic examples, such as the Beijing Bird’s Nest), but due to the pervasive corruption, and human rights violations involved with the entire event. Furthermore, thousands were displaced, and any positive economic impact of the event is not known yet, with many citizens losing their homes and jobs. Therefore, this proposed intervention involves converting the Fisht stadium into an economically productive, and self-sustaining enterprise, which takes advantage of the already-existing and flourishing fish farming and tea farming industries in the Black Sea region. Furthermore, this intervention also allows for many recreational activities to take place in the site, as many components of the existing stadium are demolished to deliberately allow the effects of nature to take hold. Most of the structural interventions are grand in scale, yet not too difficult when it comes to construction and engineering, facilitating construction under less than favorable economic conditions.
