BACKGROUNDHeritage is valuable for humankind the world over. It encapsulates all that the previous generations passed down to the next, everything that was meant to be cherished and preserved with utmost pride and respect. Heritage also ties one to the past, making it more valuable today than ever before. Market one of urban space, which acts as public space for many users. also sustains the neighborhood various needs life. Many markets offer more than just functional needs shopping and trading. They recreational spaces where, people are gathering around, sitting. market space provides behavioral settings for the neighborhood and allows people it diverse activities. The behavior of each individual based on past space, comfort, visual quality, time etc. Markets often get invested by municipalities and private businesses as they represent a focal point not only for local economies, but also have an importance as a tourist attraction, building an image for a city. Being such an important part of the urban life, city markets often get a unique architectural expression, which not only defines the way the market works and its construction, but also turns it into distinguishable icon on a cityscape. Traditional markets are places which show the community lifestyle, culture and heritage that’s why it has a strong rootedness to its local people. By relating space to culture, a relationship between historic and contemporary design decisions can be achieved. The process of regenerating markets should consider the components that make them special and give each market its sense of place. This thesis articulates the process of transformation as the vehicle for redevelopment of heritage buildings in our contemporary condition. It includes the investigation of events, theories and methods of transformation in the context of Mysore contemporary practice.
TITLE- Revitalization Of Heritage Landmarks of Mysore Aim of this thesis is to develop and restore Lansdowne building and Mysore Devaraja market area, by retaining the Heritage and character of an existing market and introducing modern system to withstand present requirements. Developing an heritage public spaces for trading, business and tourism with celebrates and promotes culture, tradition and historic value. OBJECTIVETo understanding market culture and heritage of the Mysore. To restore the heritage buildings and slow down the naturaldecaying of the structure. To retain active frontage and creating a system to uplift the legibility. To provide required commercial and recreational facilities in dense CBD area of Mysore. To introducing modern methods to sustain traditional market. To redistribute density in CBD by creating organized spaces and designing to reach maximum FAR and efficiency. SCOPEThis project shows how urban redevelopment can increase the imageability and efficiency of heritage buildings. It also shows redistribution of density can be achieved by organized zoning and circulation. Considering the project to be in an urban setup and building restoration, it would help in acting as a demonstration model for other projects. LIMITATIONWorking around heritage structures can come across unexpected complications, which can create a varying design decision during execution. Restoration of historic building projects attracts public which will be subjected to public criticism. The MUDA norms and regulations.

PROPOSAL
NEED FOR THE PROJECTDegenerating Heritage public buildings create a concern for safety of users and concern for historic value of a building it self. Continuous degradation leads either to demolition of building where the piece of history is lost, or abandoning the building which creates a dark path in a CBD area. The State Government had released funds for the renovation of Lansdowne building but the works failed to take off following the dual stand of experts. Now, the matter was pending before High Court.
Ending years of uncertainty over the fate of dilapidated Devaraja Market and Lansdowne buildings in Central Business District (CBD) of the city, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Wednesday announced that the two buildings will be rebuilt.

LITERATURE STUDY SANTA CATERINA MARKET Built in- 1997-2005 Height- 40m Floors- 1 Built up Area- 30000m2 Location- Barcelona, Spain Concept-
The proposal for the rehabilitation of the old Santa Caterina Market, located in the Ciutat Vella district of Barcelona, involves action on the urban fabric adjacent to the existing structure that rationalizes its location. At the same time, the intervention intends to “blend and confuse” with the original structure. Both purposes are achieved by the realization of a new deck, which envelops the structure and extends it beyond the perimeter of the first construction.
Impact of Redevelopment1) The redesign of the market received critical acclaim from the community. 2) A once dilapidated public space was transformed into a social Hub. 3) It attracted a newer generation to the marketplace as it had all the modern features that made shopping complexes so appealing. 4) It highlighted the importance of heritage conservation and how a history of a space can be retained while reinvigorate the space VIEW- OLD MARKET COMPLEX

BALTIC STATION MARKET Built in- 2017 Floors- 2 Built up Area- 25000m2 Location- TALLINN, ESTONIA The aim of the reconstruction design was to create a contemporary and diverse market, while also preserving the historic character of the market with all of its hustle and bustle and chaotic nature. We added to the pre-existing context to attract the widest target audience possible - from rail passengers to local residents, young people to tourists, and everyone who happens to be passing through the area.
Impact of Redevelopment 1) Segregation and providing dedicated spaces for each retail make a business space more accessible for all retail stores. 2) Vertical circulation improvement helped upper floors to function more efficiently. 3) Providing dedicated space for open market with fixed furnitures helped authority to maintain hygiene and provided equal opportunity. 4) Open-spaces functioned as relaxation space for users.

CASE STUDY PANAJI MUNICIPAL MARKET Built in- 1987 Floors- 2 Built up Area- 13778 m2 Location- PANAJI, GOA PLANNING-
• The building has a central open space, which houses the informal part of the vegetable market, where open vending takes place. • The service related programs like waste management, loading areas and cold storage are zoned outside the market complex, and do not interfere with the movement of the public within the complex.
PROGRAM-
• The Panaji Municipal Market is the main retail market place of the district, where fresh produce and various types of everyday goods are sold. • Its various programs have been zoned effectively, hence it is a relatively clean and well functioning market place. • The market mainly houses a vegetable market on the lower level, and an electronics market on the upper level it also manages and treats the wet waste produced on site. • Another major program is the cold storage facility that can be availed by vendors of the market
GROUND FLOOR PLAN- PROGRAM ZONING
ACCESS-
• The market is accessible to pedestrians from all sides, however the southern entry is the main pedestrian entry. • The northern entry is catered towards vehicular access and houses the loading unloading area and basement entry. • Two wheeler access and parking is available near the south entrance. • The side entries are for pedestrians only. The service road alongside the market is one way.
VERTICAL ZONING-
• Perishable goods like vegetables, fruits, etc. - Ground Level • Non perishable goods like electronics and clothes- G+1 • Basement parking for four and two wheelers - G-1 The upper level is accessible via, the various staircases and lifts in every corner of the market, or through the main staircases in the central courtyard. The lower level is not directly connected.
CONTEXT AND CONNECTION-
• The site is situated in a region with a commercial land-use, hence most of the buildings within this region are commercial establishments. The market is well connected to the main transportational road of the town, i.e. The Dayanand Ban dokar Marg. This allows easy access to the market from all modes of transportation. There is also a bus stop along the main road, 300m away from the market. GROUND FLOOR PLAN- ACCESS
KR MARKET, BENGALURU Built in- 1928 Floors- 4 Built up Area- 47000 m2 Location- CBD, BENGALURU The KR Market precinct covers an area of 47,000 SQM and is situated in the epicenter of a historic, dense and commercial area - Chikpete with an approximate population of 5,03,416 covering an area of 21,46 SQ KM. The market in itself houses around 1200 vendors, both formal and informal and also provides employment to coolies, the goods transport industry, and other supportive functions. It is estimated that the market receives over 1,00,000 footfalls every day. The 100 year old market was redeveloped in the 1997, parts of the old heritage structure were maintained, while the actual complex was replaced by a three store concrete building.
Center space is provided for open market
Unsafe zones open to public
However, due to lack in foresight in planning for the increase in population, and improper zoning of programs, the new complex failed to effectively reform the market space as intended, and reverted back into a crowded, unclean mess Today, many parts of the complex are over saturated with commercial activity while many more and completely unused
ISSUES
• Improper planning has caused the market to get overrun by informal vending by the sellers. • Most of the open spaces are completely taken up by street vendors which causes a lot of problems in circulation. • Improper implementation of the multilevel structure, causing the upper levels to go completely unused, placing further load on the lower level. • Facilities like parking are not used by all the people, causing a lot of problems in an already crowded area. • The complex is in a state of disrepair due to lack of proper maintenance. Poor waste management causing the market to become very dirty.

RESEARCH GUIDE FOR THE STRUCTURAL REHABILITATION OF HERITAGE BUILDINGS- W023 - WALL STRUCTURES NEED FOR INTERVENTION The need for structural rehabilitation of heritage buildings is, usually, motivated by one or more of the following circumstances: - The existence of visible defects in the building; - Damage after a particular event that affects its stability (earthquake, etc.); - The change of the use of the building for most severe conditions; and - Requirement of the competent authority, for instance, when there is an increase in the actions (earthquake action, traffic action, etc) imposed by new codes. A basic point in considering structural rehabilitation of a heritage building is establishing the performance level to be fulfilled, particularly, the requirements in terms of structural safety, i.e., the structural safety level. CRITERIA FOR INTERVENTION To succeed well, from the technical and the cultural points of view, intervention will be carried out on the basis of principles. The Venice Chart (1964), for example, which is one of the reference documents for the rehabilitation of architectural heritage, defends the adoption of the following principles: - Guarantee of structural safety; - Respect for the cultural value of the building; - Minimum intervention; - Reversibility of the intervention; - Integration on the whole building; - Compatibility of the materials; - Minimum cost. STAGES OF REHABILITATION OF HERITAGE BUILDINGThe intervention for structural rehabilitation of heritage buildings comprises, in general, the following phases/actions: - Acquisition of documented data about the building; - Detailed survey of the existing condition of the building; - Elaboration of the diagnosis (eventually, with the carrying of tests); - Assessment of the structural safety; - Design of the solutions for the intervention; - Execution of the intervention.

FRAMEWORK FOR NEW ARCHITECTURAL ADDITIONS TO HERITAGE BUILDINGS The new additions in this level to the original building have three possibilities: 1) The same original use 2) New use is compatible with its original use 3) New use differentiating with the original use of the building heritage
New additions can be classified according to
1) Elements and size of the additions “treatments, transparent membrane, structures to cover courtyard, lightweight structures, adding-new volumes, mezzanines and floors-to the existing building, adding new separate building” 2) Adding new materials should appropriate structural integrity and choice of materials should revitalize and enrich the existing building, these materials like “stone, brick, wood, concrete, steel, glass, etc.” 3) Constructions works: Structural system, finishes, electrical, lighting, plumbing, mechanical, heating and cooling fighting fire system, Security.
The Addition impact includes three main aspects as the following:
1) Different types in the location of the new addition to the original building “exterior- on top of original building, interior- in plans, courtyard surrounding of the original building, underground the original building” 2) Analysis for the vocabularies of addition (plan shape-geometric, irregular or free-form; Façade-material color and texture, realistic aesthetics, natural aesthetics “proportionality, diversity, etc.”, engineering aesthetics “organization, rhythm, etc.”, high-tech values “luxury, height, etc.”, the values of deconstructive beauty “non-linearity, complexity & chose, surprise”
DESIGN STRATEGIES OF NEW ARCHITECTURAL ADDITIONS Installation (Wrap, parasite,juxtaposition)
The old and new buildings exist independently. The new elements design may be influenced by the existing building but they are not necessarily compatible with it.
Insertion
A new, independent element that is suited exactly to the existing envelope. It is constructed to fit and is located within the boundaries of the existing building.
Intervention (Weaving)
The existing structure undergoes major transformations so that it can no longer exist independently. The old and the new additions are completely integrated

DASARA PROCESSION The city of Mysore has a long tradition of celebrating the Dasara festival. According to historians, the Dasara festivities began with the Vijayanagar kings in the 15th century. After the fall of the Vijayanagar kingdom, the Wodeyars of Mysore continued the Dasara Festival, initially by Raja Wodeyar I (1578-1617 AD) in the year 1610 at Srirangapatna. The conclusion of the Dasara celebrations is marked by a colorful Dasara procession, popularly known as Jamboo Savari. The main attraction of the Dasara procession is the idol of Goddess Chamundeshwari which is carried in a Golden howdah weighing over 750 kg on top of an elephant. Pre-independence, practice was that the king himself would lead the procession seated upon Golden howdah on the royal elephant back.

Intra city bus and railway frequency varies from 45min to 2 hours based on destination city. Other inter city public transportation includes Auto facilities and Tonga vehicle. Roads of Mysore and transportation network strategy is implemented to handle Vehicular traffic at its peaks. Considering Mysore is a tourist spot weekends and holiday times expects more traffic. At any given traffic junction at any given peak time the maximum traffic time will be 90sec. Weakness- During Dasara and during Holidays when the tourism is at peak the traffic and congestion in CBD increases. Which becomes difficult for business at CBD to operate efficiently.

URBAN INSIGHTS EDGE CONDITIONS
ACTIVITY AROUND NODE
In the context of a city, the edge is the surface of the urban block, which defines the peripheries of the block as well as plays an active independent role in the formal organization of the urban open spaces. This edge is an interface between the inner private space and the outdoor public environment.
Nodes act as a contact point as it will create another contact point in a certain area because from the Jan Gehl’s Theory - stated: “Urban environment could influences the behavior of user.” Each nodes are connecting to each other.
Edge is defined by Building form. Road pattern and road side activity like street hawkers.
All the urban Nodes is defined by the Architecture Landmark structure. the nodes are usual surround by road creating traffic junctions on study area and Chikka gadiyara tower node holds a seating and hawker space. EDGES

OPPORTUNITIES
THREATS
• Planned road network. • Planned zoning of city markets, transportation system in the city center which made easy access to common public. • Market spaces is a spaces of tourist attraction with its dynamic activity and culture, along with business and commercial activity. • Planned parking spaces along the road and dedicated parking spaces in city center. • Integration of different social classes. • Enhancement of local economy. • Regulator (local) price commutation and open market.
• Denigrating heritage structures in city center creating a negative spaces. • Unplanned buildings with lower capacity is not meeting up the potential of plots. • Un-designated spaces for street hawkers creating a congestion in foot path, parking spaces. • Number of vesicles parkable is reduces due to street hawkers using parking spaces. • Road congestion due to high human foot print at certain time in a day. • Insufficient open spaces.
• Redevelopment of heritage. • Designated spaces for street hawkers. • Re planning of plots to meet maximum efficiency. • Developing existing open spaces and opening up to public. • Creating open space with supports the present commercial activity around the market. • Redistributing density and traffic.
• Lack of attention for falling heritage buildings can lead to safety issues, abandoning a structure. • Un used buildings creates a negative space in city center, which leads to density un-even distribution. • Lack of open space can create over crowding and decreases social activity. • Due to competition the number of street hawkers may increases over time, un designated spaces for hawkers will increase a traffic issue and pedestrian discomfort.
ISSUES IN STUDY AREA Potential of plots in city center is reduced due to lo built up area buildings. Height density built up area with no open spaces.

ISSUE- In a high denser CBD area patches of plots have a building of lower built up area and most of them are built 30 years ago with lode bear wall or lower dead load consideration. This builds can neither be developed by adding floors or satisfy present requirement of density. SOLUTIONS- Redeveloping plots with maximum built up area, creating vertical zoning of commercial space, goods storage, profanation offices etc.,
DERIVED DESIGN PRINCIPALS • Providing designated space for Street hawkers and parking. • Providing pedestrian friendly space • Increasing efficiency of build form by remodeling • Increasing the visual aesthetic of heritage building. • Frontage development to uplift heritage buildings • Efficient usage of open space.
