What is the City?

The Temporal City

(ΔT)3

WITH THE PROGGRESSION OF TIME, A CITY WOULD BE AFFECTED BY THE SCALE FACTOR OF INCREASING IN SIZE, DENSITY OR BOTH. ACTING LIKE A CENTRAL BEACON, A CITY IS SEEN TO BE THE CENTRAL VESSEL AND HEART OF A LOCATION. AS WHENEVER THE CITY STOPS PUMPING BLOOD/ WORKFLOW, A FALLOFF IS DETERMINED TO HAPPEN. RATHER THE IDEAL CITY WOULD BE CONSTANTLY ‘ON THE MOVE’, AS AN ACTIVE CITY IS A CITY WITH DIRECTION AND FUTURE. A CITY SHOULD NEVER CLOSE CONTACT WITH ITS SURROUNDINGS OR OUTSIDE COMMUNITY, AS BEING ACTIVE MEANS BEING OPEN TO PUBLIC AND PRIVATE 24/7 AND FUNDAMENTALLY WOULD OFFER GOODS TO THE PUBLIC EVERY HOUR OF THE DAY. A SENSE OF DIRECTIONALITY SHOULD BE POTENT WITHIN A CITY, CONTSANT MOVING TRANSPORT AND POPULATIONS, CROSSINGS, RAILWAY AND ROADS WOULD CUT THROUGH A CITY LIKE A JIGSAW PUZZLE, MAKING BUILDINGS OR A BLOCK OF LAND LOOK LIKE TRAFFIC ISLANDS TO TAKE OFF ON. WHERE DENSITY IS BORN AND MAINTAINED, IT IS ALSO SOMETHING THAT IS IGNORED AND PROCESSEED AS AN AFTERTHOUGHT AFTER ENTERING OR EXITING THE CITY, MAKING IT THE SECOND HOME FOR A CHUNK OF A POPULATION.

What is time?

The Temporal City

(ΔT)3

THE ASPECT OF TIME LIES BETWEEN THE REALITY OF ONES OWN MIND, AND THE REALITY OF THE WORLD THAT IT LIVES IN, AS TIME CAN BE VARIED AND DEFINED DIFFERENTLY BY EACH INDIVIDUAL. WHICH FOLLOWS THE CREATION AND BELIEFS TOWARDS INVISIONING DISTOPIAN AND UTOPIAN WORLDS THAT EMBODY VARIOUS POSSIBLE TIME PERIODS THAT THE FUTURE HOLDS. TIME IS ULTIMATELY WHAT DEFINES THE VALUE AND LONGEVITY OF A PLACE OR OBJECT. AS WHAT IS LEFT OVER OR MAINTAINED THROUGH A PERIOD OF TIME IS CONSIDERED VALUABLE. AND AS TIME IS ONLY PROGRESSING, IT WOULD PROJECT TO THE ASSUMPTION THAT EVERYTHING WOULD HAVE AN ENDING OR RESULTED OUTCOME TOWARDS IT.

THE BYPASS OF PARKING DEVELOPMENT THROUGH THE INCREASE OF POPULATION IN MELBOURNE, A SENSE OF TRAFFIC CONGESTION AND OVERWHELMING PEAK HOURS HAD BEEN INCREASING SIGNIFICANTLY OVER THE PAST YEARS. REPORTED FROM ABC NEWS IN 2018, THE AVERAGE SPEED IN MELBOURNE IN TERMS OF VEHICLE TRAFFIC HAS BEEN DROPPING SINCE 2013 DOWN TO AN AVERAGE OF JUST 60km/hr.

TRAVELLING VIA PUBLIC OR PRIVATE TRANSPORT IS SEEN TO BE THE MAIN FORM OF COMMUTE, AS AROUND 37% OF MELBOURNIANS TAKE PUBLIC TRANSPORT, AND OUT OF THAT MORE THAN 50% USED PUBLIC TRANSPORT DUE TO CONVENIENCY AND REDUCED TRAVEL TIME. WITH THE CITY BEING A CENTRAL HUB FOR BUSINESS AND EDUCATION, THE DATASET USED FOR RESEARCH IS TO ACCESS AND ANALYSE THE SITUATION OF TRANSPORT AND POPULATION WITHIN THE CBD, IN DETERMINING WHAT POSSIBLE FUTURE OUTCOMES SHOULD CHANGE FOR THE BETTER.

THE LANEWAY GREENING POTENTIAL SHOWS THE VARIOUS AREAS OF GREENING IN THE CBD WHICH WOULD OVERALL COMBAT URBAN DENSITY AND THE LOSS OF PUBLIC OPEN SPACE, WHILST ALSO TO LIVEN UP THE CITY. BUT WHEN COMPARED WITH ON STREET CARPARKS, A QUESTION OF SUBSTITUTION OR ADAPTATION BETWEEN THE TWO CROSSOVERS COULD RESULT IN MORE GREENERY FOR THE CBD.

THE USE OF LIVE PEDESTRIAN DATA RECORDS THE WEEKDAY IN AND OUTFLOW OF PEDESTRIANS FROM MULTIPLE SENSOR POINTS, THROUGH THIS ANALYSIS FROM A 6AM TO 7PM TIME FRAME, THE MOST POPULATED AREAS INCLUDED THE CITY LOOP STATIONS ALONG WITH SPRING/FLINDER ST INTERSECTION. INDICATING THE MAIN USE OF TRANSPORT TOWARDS THE CBD BEING PTV. ANOTHER ITERATION SHOWS A TYPICAL WEEKEND PEDESTRIAN COUNT, SHOWING SIMILAR PATTERNS IN HOTSPOTS WHERE PUBLIC TRANSPORT IS NEAR.

(ΔT)3

A QUICK ANALYSATION OF CBD TRAFFIC SPEED ALSO INDICATES THE SLOW TRAFFIC SPEED IN THE CENTRAL CBD AREAS, WITH AVERAGE SPEED LIMITS AROUND 40km/hr, IT WOULD ALSO CONTRIBUTE TOWARDS SLOWER TRAFFIC AND CONGESTION PROBLEMS DURING PEAK HOURS.

THE ANALYSATION OF WEATHER AND PARKING BAY SENSORS ALSO INDICATE THE LARGE AMOUNT OF UNOCCUPIED CAR PARK SPACE WITHIN THE CBD, AS THE FIRST CHART INDICATES THE EVENING PARKING HAVING OVERALL MORE UNOCCUPIED SPACES, ANOTHER TEST ON EARLY MORNING AND AFTERNOON DATASETS INDICATES OVERALL MORE OCCUPIED SPACES, BUT THE NUMBER ON UNNOCUPIED SPACES ARE STILL SUBSTANTIAL FOR FUTURE POSSIBLE CHANGES.

AVERAGE PARKING DURATIONS OF THE CBD IS ANALYSED TO SHOW THAT MAJORITY OF LONG TERM OR LONGER DURATION PARKING AREAS ARE USUALLY FOCUSED AROUND OUTSIDE THE HODDLE GRID, MEANING MORE VACANT AND UNOCCUPIED PARKING SPACES WITHIN CENTRAL CBD.

USING CARPARK DATASETS OF THYE CBD, THE USE OF OCCUPIED AND UNOCCUPIED CARPARK SPACES WOULD BE ACUMULATED IN ORDER TO OBSERVE THE SCALE OF TOTAL CARPARK AREA ON GROUND FLOOR COMPARED TO THE HODDLE GRID SIZE. THIS EXPLORATION WOULD OPEN MORE OPPORTUNITIES TO DISCOVER THE POTENTIAL REPURPOSE OF THESE AREAS WITHIN THE CITY TO BE PLACED IN A NEW ENVIRONMENT FOR THE FUTURE GROWTH OF THE CITY, ALONG WITH REDUCING GROUND FLOOR LANDSPACE TO STOP FUTURE GROWTH OF CARPARK ZONES.

CHANGES TO GROUND FLOOR SPACE THE IMPLEMENTATIONS OF CARPARK SPACES WITHIN THE CBD CONTEXT WOULD RESULT DIRECTLY TOWARDS THE MAJOR DEVELOPMENT OF THE FUTURE CITY VERTICALLY, AS THE SCARCE AMOUNT OF AVAILABLE CBD LAND FOR FUTURE CONSTRUCTION FACES THE PROBLEM OF LIMITED RESOURCES. THE QUESTION BEING HOW WOULD THE FUTURE CITY OPERATE FOR THE COMING YEARS WITHOUT GROWING OR SPREADING HORIZONTALLY? HOW WOULD THE CITY APPROACH VERTICAL BUILDING AND STURCTURAL HIERARCHY?

PRESUMED GROWTH OF THE CITY POPULATION VS MY PREDICTIONS FOR THE STEADY DECREASE AND INCREASE IN POPULATION FOR THE POST-COVID CITY SCENARIO. AS THE NUMBERS WOULD ACCOMPDATE THE SLOW GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF CITY STRUCTURES AFTER PRIORITISING STRUCTURAL HIERARCHY.

EDUCATION AND ENTERTAINMENT FOR THE SPECIFIC BLOCK CHOSEN THE STRUCTURAL HIERARCHY OF EDUCATION AND ENTERTAINMENT IS PROMINENT IN THE BLOCK FORMATION, WHERE FOR THE 24 HOUR PEAK, THE USE OF STRUCTURAL FORMS WOULD BE ADAPTED TOWARDS THE NEEDS OF THESE PROGRAMS. USING MORNING AND DAYTIME FOR MORE EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES WHILST THE USE OF ENTERTAINMENT PROGRAMS WOULD BE MORE HEAVILY FOCUSED FOR THE NIGHT TIME SCHEDULE. THE NEW TEMPORAL CITY WOULE BE SEEN TO NOT HOST OR KEEP ANY VISITORS FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME, WHERE THE REMOVAL OR REDUCTION OF ACCOMODATION PROGRAMS WOULD INCREASE MOVEMENT AND ACTIVITIES WITHIN BLOCK-TOBLOCK FUNCTIONS. WITH LESS OFFICE SPACES, MORE PROGRAMS CAN BE ACHIEVED TO FORESEE THE CITY AS A WHOLE ENTERTAINMENT AND EDUCATIONAL REGION FOR THE PUBLIC.

AS THE STRUCTURAL HIERARCHY IS DIFFERENT TO EACH BLOCK ITS PROGRAMS AND FUNCTIONS WOULD VARY IN TERMS OF ADVANCEMENT AND PRIORITISING. THE USE OF AGGREGATIONS TO TRIGGER THE GROWTH OF BLOCKS WOULD BE SEEN AS A PARASITE OR METHODOLOGY THAT WORKS ON ANY CITY BLOCKS EQUATION, WHERE EACH SOLUTION IS A DIFFERENT ANSWER. IN BUILDING VERTICALLY THE USE OF THIS AGGREGATION WOULD GO FURTHER THAN A 30 YEAR PERIOD AS IT WOULD BE SEEN AS A CONTINUOUS CYCLE.

IN DEFINING A CITY, IT NEEDS TO BE MADE CLEAR THAT THE CITY PRESENTS ITSELF AS A CENTRAL BEACON OR HEART TOWARDS ITS SURROUNDING CONTEXT AND LOCATION, WHERE A CITY ALSO DEFINES THE HIERARCHICAL SCALE OF PROGRAM AND DENSITY, AS A CITY WITH A DIRECTION AND PATHWAY TO DEVELOPMENT TOWARDS ITS CURRENT CIRCUMSTANCES WOULD ULTIMATELY LEAD TO ITS FUTURE AND LONGEVITY WITHIN THE POPULATION DEMANDS. THE PROJECT FUNCTION FIELDS EXPLORES THE REPURPOSING OF THE USE AND FUNCTIONALITY ONSTREET CARPARKING SPOTS IN TERMS OF TYPE AND DURATION. THE FORMAL OUTCOME IS EXPLORED THROUGH THE COMBINATION OF SPECIFIC FIELD CONDITIONS MADE UP

BY EACH CBD BLOCK’S STRUCTURE FUNCTIONS WHICH FOCUSES ON EDUCATION AND ENTERTAINMENT MAINLY, THE USE OF FUNCTION FIELDS WOULD RESULT IN DIFFERENT FIELD FORM FORMATIONS FOR EACH BLOCK OR LAND APPLIED THAT COMBINES THE CITY THROUGH CONDITIONS.

RETURN BRIEF AFTER MID SEMESTER FEEDBACK, THE CENTRAL FOCUS WAS APPLIED MORE TOWARDS THE PROCESS TOWARDS GENERATING THE AGGREGATION OUTCOMES. THE CONNECTION BETWEEN CARPARK SPACES, FIELD CONDITIONS AND TYPOLOGY COMPONENTS ARE NEEDING A MORE INTERSECTING CONNECTION IN ORDER TO STRENGTHEN THE PROJECT TO CONTINUE ON TO DETAIL MODELLING.
