Bus stops
This is a map that represents the locations of bus stops. There are two close bus stops near the site, so travelling will not be an issue, also the buses goes around the whole of Salford and it also takes you to the central of Manchester and Arndale.
There are close access to public transports for the client to use. The bus stop is across the road of where the house will be, also it takes up to 5 minutes to get the closest tram from the site. This is useful, but it will not be needed for Frank as often as he drives a car. However, the positive aspect is that his friends and family can travel with public transports also if it was ever needed for Frank, transport is not an issue.

This is the basement floor It contains 4 rooms; gym room, swimming pool area, gaming room and a bathroom The gym room has a height of 4.5m, this is because the workouts and gym equipment's that Frank will be working with will be very high The rooms 3, 4 and 5 are above the gym room. This is done by adding a sloped- stair case (2) that goes up to 2m high. I realised that 5m would be too much space for the heigh for the rest of the rooms so I had to shorten it Exterior walls: 30cm thick Interior walls:15-30cm thick
