ECOLOGICAL TIMELESSNESS_
Amy Rodda | Master of Architecture & Urban Design - Unit Convenor: Ian Woodcock | Tutor: Ellen Terrill
DESIGN RESEARCH STUDIO B_EDGE OF BOUNTY | SEMESTER 1, 2020 | SWINBURNE UNIVERSITY
ABSTRACT_ I hope that this folio gives an insight into my learning & design thinkings during Swinburne’s Design Studio B - Edge of Bounty. I have structured my folio sequentially so that you can get an understanding of how I built up my final design, from my first encounter with the site and this studio, to the final presentation - where I was able to gain a great understanding of what circular economies are, how ecological systems are able to be integrated into the urban landscape, & the possibilities & limitations that come from relocating a large civic stadium, & using artificial decking in order to link the city to the water. Although there is always more to learn as well as things that I now could have been done differently and/or more economically & efficiently, I have gained so much from this studio, & due to this knew gained knowledge & understanding I hope to utilise my learning outcomes in future projects. My final Project, Ecological Timelessness, is the first step to me implementing these design learnings &, more specifically, looks at a realistic way of tackling the topographical possibilities that come from using artifical decking as a way of linking Melbourne CBD to the Water, & the Docklands to North [West] Melbourne Station. These possibilities include celebrating the latent histories of the site, implementing more ecologically sustainable systems for the fructification of the site, & the food producing capabilities to enhance the success & future livelihood of the site. So, although the best way to understand this project is to have been part of it & experienced this studio for yourself [especially considering this studio took place remotely during the Covid-19 Pandemic Lockdown], I hope that by flicking through these pages you are able to get a sense of the problems & solutions; questions, processes & outcomes; & concepts, explorations & reflections that came out of Swinburne’s 2020 Edge of Bounty studio.

KNOWING PLACES_ Group Exercise | Group 6_Alyssa Berona | Amy Rodda | Megan Murray
Knowing Places was the first exercise given at the start of the semester. The point of this exercise was to gain a better understanding of the site that we are going to be working with for the duration of the semester, with each group being given a research topic to consider research & interrogate. The topic that my group was given was quite subjective, as the exact title of our topic was ‘other ecological ecosystems/systems of biodiversity ’. So, from this topic we took it upon ourselves to look into the basic tangible & intangible physical history of the site & its surrounds in order to gain a better understanding of the ecosystem in which the local flora & fauna exists. We then looked at what Melbourne’s foodbowl is like & how ecologically sustainable it is at a local community scale. From, this we were able to get a better understanding as to the bio-diversity & natural eco-system in which the site sits, & a better understanding as to the need to bring macro agricultural practices, & implement them at a more finite scale to to the City of Melbourne. Finally, we looked at ways in which our site could take preceding urban greening strategies & Ken Yeang’s bio-digital skin & potentially start implementing them into this project.

Melbourne was founded and the YARRA RIVER was given its European name based on the local indigenous word for ‘it flows’, ‘Yarro Yarro’.
FLOODING starts filling Port Phillip Bay with water CREATING MARSHLANDS. 8000 - 5000 BC Port Phillip Bay is covered by a large grassy plain called NAIRM.

5000 - 2000 BC
1803 FIRST EUROPEAN SETTLERS arrive in Port Phillip Bay.
1835 >
ABORIGINAL PEOPLE were BANNED from the area, commencing the widespread destruction of the natural landscape. 1839
THE FIRST FLOODING of the Yarra River was recorded.
1840
The ROYAL ACCLIMATISATION & ZOOLOGICAL SOCIETY formed in Melbourne with the aim of introducing foreign species. 1860 > MELBOURNE’S INDUSTRIAL BOOM led to the Yarra become severely polluted & the spread of disease.
1861
RIVER ROSE 14 METRES leading to the largest flood recorded in the Yarra’s history. 1880 > Construction of VICTORIA DOCK commenced, changing the course of the yarra.
1890
THE DOCKLANDS STRATEGY for redevelopment was initiated after decades of pollution.
The Yarra’s LAST RECORDED FLOOD. 1908 Victoria Dock was handling an estimated 90% OF VICTORIA’S IMPORTS.
1934
TODAY in the CITY OF MELBOURNE there are 182 bird species, 8 mammal species, 22 fish species, 14 reptile and frog species & 71 species of plants.
1968 Construction of SWANSTON DOCK began, making Victoria Dock redundant.
1989
1995
TODAY
The first ‘FISH LADDER’ was constructed in the Yarra to help keep local fish populations strong.

MAKING PLACES | SITUATIONAL UNDERSTANDINGS_ Group Exercise | Group 6_Alyssa Berona | Amy Rodda | Megan Murray Delving deeper into the histories of the site that we have been given, this exercise gave our group the task to look at a more finite scale & what the heritage & latent histories are within the Edge of Bountry site itself. This allowed us to not only look at the typologies & significance of the architecture that the site & immediate surround encapsulates, but also the heritage of the site’s aboriginal past. Another part of this exercise, was the inverstigation into the existing waterside urbanism, which played in quite well with us realising that there is not much, & definitely not enough considering the rich latent landmarks of the Moonee Ponds Creek, Victoria Harbour & the legend of the Blue Lake. And although the site is considered to be a brownfield’s site, even the maritime industrial past, which includes buildings such as the West Tower & Central Piers, seems to have been forgotten or abandoned in any existing urban proposals. This particular exercise interested me quite a bit & as you look further through this folio you will see that the latent histories of the Edge of Bounty site played quite a significance on my final design.

SITE IMPRESSION_ In week 02 we had a site visit, & although we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know it yet this would come to be our only physical visit to the site for this semester. we were able to from this get a better perspective of what its like to be within & around the Edge of Bounty. Following this site visit, & in combination with our group exercises we were tasked individually to create an A2 hand-drawing of the site inspired by Nigel Peake , & building on the layers of information we have gathered about the Edge of Bounty thus far. We were able to use a number of mixed mediums [including my chosen ink, marker & pencil] in order to emphasize line, texture, pattern & subtle spatial insights into the Edge of Bounty. By choosing to add a slight 3rd Dimension to my drawing I think that I was able to make the most of this texture map, not only showing the surfaces & materiality around the site but also the negative & positive spaces of movement throughout the site & its surrounds.
75
CONNECTING THOROUGHFARE_ Âť First impression of the site visit | entry point from city to docklands - potential continuation from southern cross to la trobe street
76
77
MOVEMENT & PAUSE_ Âť use of built form to create places for people to move & places for people to pause & ponder
78
79
URBAN FORM_ Âť urban jungle building typologies | showing a lot of vertical circulation but not a lot of horizontal predestrian hierarchical connectivity & greenfrastucture as an after thought to infrastructure
80
81
LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE_ » waterside urbanism | by continuing the hoddle grid I hope to create a stronger connection for people between the city & the dockland’s harbour esplanade
82
83
PROMINENT CONNECTIONS_ Âť conceptual bridging | as I walked throughout the site I saw time & time again the potential of bridging; how la trobe connected the city to the docklands [albeit narrow], the connection to the water, & the inspiration of connection created through seeing the bolte bridge - this is what inspired me to use artifical decking as a way of reconnecting.
84
85
BROWNFIELD HERITAGE_ Âť egate site | the main issue with this part of the site is the rail corridor & how to create a permeable connection, as well as celebrating the latent histories of this siteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s maritime & freighting past.
86
87
FOLLY ART_ Âť play perform amuse | scattered throughout the site, follies such as these will allow for the human scale touch.

[RETURN] BRIEF_ The Return Brief was not only the first exercise that tasked us with the beginnings of how we will respond to this studio, but was also the first exercise that we completed completely remotely. This meant that in addition to us facing the challenge of trying to incorporate the many, many complexities of this site & the potential opportunities of circular economies, we had to navigate a way to do this in writing/visualisations remotely & online. Our studio decided the best way to tackle the return brief with all of these complexities was using the online platform Miro. Once, mocking up & sending in my initial written return brief, I found it motivating to the mind map all of my thoughts, concepts, questions & directions using Miro, & infact I think that without this mind-mapping process I would not have been able to start processing how I would tackle the studioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brief of incorporating food offerings, ecological systems, stadium speculations, urban programme, public realm strategy & contributions of the site to the city as well as I did. Although, one thing I will take away having now completed this studio is to possibly ensure a bit more emphasis on certain parts of the mind map in future projects so as to create a more clear & consise direction when it comes to my design responses, so I do not take on too much at once; try & respond to a few things well rather than try & respond to everything.

[RETURN] BRIEF_ An investigation into how to create POSITIVE PLACE THINKING and cultivating that to create an agro-urban environment. OR On the flip side - how to create agrourban design WITHOUT it being unsuccessful and CREATING ABORANT BEHAVIOUR. In addition, I want to also look at the more physical aspects of HOW TO ENGINEER AN AGROURBAN ENVIRONMENT.
96
How does the proximity of a major railway corridor & an implementing major highway running through the site impact any aspirations?
How do you create the right type of community engagement in order to maintain an agro-urban hub?
TRANSPORTATION BARRIERS
AGRO-URBANISM
MY DESIGN CIRCULATION Is there a way to reinstate the concept of the Blue Lake & could this combat water level rises & the water senstivity of the site for agro-urban design?
WATER URBANISM
STADIUM RELOCATION
How do you create the right type of community engagement in order to maintain an agro-urban hub?
How could the relocation of the stadium change the identity & hostility of the site? Could this be a catalyst for gentrification?
97
CONCEPT
[RETURN] BRIEF_ THE SITE located to the west of Melbourneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s CBD between Southern Cross Station, Moonee Ponds Creek & Dynon Road can be seen as somewhat of AN ENIGMA TO THE URBAN FABRIC. With such rich history, it has been transformed from Aboriginal importance to an industrial epicentre and has the potential to be gentrified into a HYBRID OF BOTH ANTIQUITIES TO CREATE AN AGRO-URBAN CONVERGENCE.
ACTIVATION
Like most of Melbourne even with a prominent watercourse running along its boundary, there has been no water urbanistic design; WHY IS THIS THE CASE? and WHAT CAN BE DONE TO MODIFY THIS IN ORDER TO UTILISE THIS ASSET?
98
The lack of human scale intervention & activation of the site in addition to the urban neglect of what should be such a celebrated piece of land is truely bewildering. The desire to re-activate this site & shift the hostile identity of this assemblage to an agro-urban hub, along with the bridging of the city to the water should create a reinstated appreciation as to the value of the site & human engagement that has baffled many.
CONCEPT
PLACE-MAKING
[RETURN] BRIEF_
The initial thought when given this site was the enveloping railway line that seems to not only segment the site but create a huge disconnect between the users of the railway line and the site itself. This allowed the site to be become missused and neglected; even when urban designs have amounted they have been overlooked in favour of other urban schemes. The mission that I hope this studio allows for is to explore & create not only an engineered space but also a sustainable place for its users. To add to this I want to look into the biorythm of this site, and how to maintain an agro-urban design through community engagement.
To look into the tangible & intangible fabric of what makes an agro-urban design & due to the location of the project how to integrate this design with water urbanism & water sensitivity in order to sustain the longevity & wellbeing of both the site & its inhabitance. - If this cannot be achieved, why not? - What bio-complexities come to the forefront? - If an agro-urban design is achievable, what connectivity solutions are their to elinimate the barrier enclosing the ingress to the site; the road, the rail & the stadium?

PRECINCT PRECEDENT STUDY_ The aim of this task was to find a regenerated urban precinct precedent, of a similar footprint to the Edge of Bounty site & review it’s proposed programme (population, type and area) & how it fits into the surrounding context and other urban programme of the area. The particular precedent I decided to go with was a masterplan project called ‘An Urban - Agrarian‘ vision by Yiannis Aesopos. One of the biggest takeaways I got from this project was that although it was very innovative in terms of its agri-urban concept, the actual design of this concept was quite week in that the project simply placed fields of agriculture such as olive groves within an urban context rather than stitching these two elements together through the design. » I took the weakness of this precendent’s approach to combining agricultural urbanism & looked at how I could instead incorporate the agricultural element into the urban landscape throughout my design & then utilise the landscape to reduce the heat island effect, create urban greening strategies & ensure food security.

“The proposed Master-Plan acknowledges the area’s key location as a nodal point for all mobility networks of the broader Athens Basin and its proximity to the city center and the port of Piraeus. It supports the implantation of large-scale buildings with mainly tertiary sector programs within the core of the area as stimulators for development; they are supported by a new LRT line which crosses the area from north to south and connects to all other public transportation networks.” -

“As a balance to the insertion of new building surfaces to the area, the upgrading of the green environment is considered fundamental and is realized through the reconstruction of a new large-scale linear olive grove (a “new Eleonas”), the reconstruction of Profitis Daniel Stream and the extensive planting of olive groves, orchards, collective farming in the form of allotments and public parks.” - Evripiotis, G., 2017

“This project’s aim was to create an “urban enclave” within the urban mass of Athens. It stands on the area of an ancient olive grove just two kilometers west of the city’s center, and can be perceived as an extended formless, undefined, uncanny area that contains a random collection of manufacturing, storage and transportation facilities in constant flux combined with neglected leftovers of the original landscape of Attica.” - Evripiotis, G., 2017
121
“The presence of housing is strongly supported using new typologies, different from that of the typical “polykatoikia” (the Greek apartment building). The simultaneous use of tools for economic development with the strengthening of the natural/landscape character of the area create a new “urban-agrarian” environment.” - Evripiotis, G., 2017

SOCIAL | CULTURAL | ECONOMIC CONTEXT_ In this exercise, each of us were tasked with tackling a different social | cultural | economic trend that is effecting our site’s urban realm & then sharing our findings to the class. For this exercise I was given the topic ‘an immigration state’. I found this subject quite interesting given the fact that the immigration to Melbourne has been a leading driver the city & state’s population growth, & has created new urban patterns throughout the years. This means that noticing current immigration trends could give insight into future urban cultural identities for the site including the increase in younger Australian’s & more economically diverse households leading to the potential need for more social housing initiatives, & more lively & walkable street networks.
127
IMMIGRATION |
Following World War II, Australia opened its doors, and in the name of nation building, or ‘populate or perish’, welcomed in the first major wave of migrants, many from the war-torn countries of Europe. Over time, the focus of migration shifted, and instead of targeting a growing population, the goal became to support a growing economy. In the mid-1990s, the migration program was significantly expanded and the focus on attracting highly skilled migrants was strengthened. Since that time, migration has comprised more than half of Australia’s population growth, similar to some of the previous peaks in migration in the 1940s, 1960s and 1980s. MIGRATION HAS, IN MANY WAYS, SHAPED AUSTRALIA’S CULTURE AND ECONOMY.

Migration has also shaped the nature of our society, with 49 per cent of Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s population either a migrant or the child of a migrant. Australians have consistently shown high levels of support for migration, and the benefits it has brought. - The Treasury - Department of Home Affairs, 2018

Since 2005, net overseas migration has averaged 200,000 people per year, up from 100,000 in the previous decade. Predicted to be around 240,000 per year over the next few years. The primary obstacle of population growth are the planning rules that delay or prevent development.

rural poverty and urban opportunity are combining to drive a relentless rural-to-urban migration and these new urban populations have overwhelmingly housed themselves informally. Dovey, K., 2018
133
IMMIGRATION |
New Zealand citizens occupy a special place in Australia’s migration framework. - They require a visa that is granted on arrival in Australia, yet despite being a “temporary” visa, there is no end date. - This allows indefinite leave to remain in Australia. As at March this year, there were 676,084 people holding the subclass 444 visa designed exclusively for New Zealand citizens. - Despite this open border arrangement, many New Zealand citizens are ineligible for Australian citizenship as they do not qualify for a subsequent permanent residency visa, rendering them “permanently temporary”.

Australia records zero stateless persons in its annual reporting to the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) but the Government acknowledged in budget estimates in May 2017 that there were 37 stateless persons in immigration detention, on average for 836 days. Yet since there is no Australian visa specifically for stateless persons, many are detained indefinitely in Australian immigration detention and an unknown number have also been detained offshore in centres on Nauru and Manus Island. CITIZENSHIP OR NATIONALITY IS A PREREQUISITE FOR EXERCISING BASIC RIGHTS - Foster, M., 2018

migration increases house prices, especially when there are constraints on building enough new homes. State governments need to fix planning rules to allow more housing to be built in inner and middle-ring suburbs. More small-scale urban infill projects should be allowed without council planning approval. And state governments should allow denser development â&#x20AC;&#x153;as of rightâ&#x20AC;? along key transport corridors. The Commonwealth can help with financial incentives for these reforms. - Daley, J., Coates, B., Chen, T., 2018

Population Participation Productivity
Overseas-born people on average at a single point in time have less wealth and savings than Australian-born people. One explanation for the wealth gap is the increasing levels of remittances sent by migrants to their home countries in recent years. The Productivity Commission noted that this increase was likely the result of increasing migration flows, the appreciation of the Australian dollar and the increase in immigrants from countries with large remittance flows including China, India, the Philippines and Vietnam - The Treasury - Department of Home Affairs, 2018

The imbalance between demand and supply has consequences. Younger and poorer households are paying more for housing, and owning a home depends more on who your parents are, a big change from the early 1980s. - Daley, J., Coates, B., Chen, T., 2018

Infrastructure was a pressure point raised in consultations as it can sometimes lag behind population growth. This includes new growth areas having little access to transport infrastructure but also extends to social infrastructure â&#x20AC;&#x201C; housing often arrives in greenfield areas before hospitals and schools.
142
- The Treasury - Department of Home Affairs, 2018
IMMIGRATION | It is worth noting - The effects of population growth are not one-sided:
- more people can create more problems, more people are also available to help solve them. This is because population growth results in more consumers, workers and employers.
- The costs and the benefits of population growth and immigration may not always align, which may result in distributional or compositional effects.
- To continue to reap the benefits of immigration and population growth, it is important to address the costs through a continued focus on existing challenges. - The Treasury - Department of Home Affairs, 2018

A consequence of urban sprawl has been a decline in the number of households that can easily access their job by car or public transport. This has economic and liveability implications for households that cannot afford to move to areas that have better accessibility to jobs.
144
- The Treasury - Department of Home Affairs, 2018
IMMIGRATION | To overcome these issues, governments should build more social housing, and tightly target it to people most at risk of becoming homeless for the long term. But Australians need to face up to a harsh truth: either people accept greater density in their suburb, or their children will not be able to buy a home.
1.
Introduce a new small redevelopment housing code. It would protect neighbours, reduce planning uncertainty and improve the quality of new developments. The code would include the things that worry neighbours the most, such as privacy, height and overshadowing.
2.
Allow taller developments of four to eight storeys â&#x20AC;&#x153;as of rightâ&#x20AC;? on major transport corridors and around train stations.
3.
Set housing targets for each local council. The targets should be linked to plans for the growth of the city as a whole. Where councils fail to meet planning targets, independent planning panels should step in.

IMMIGRATION | Over 40 years (to 30 June 2015), statistics published by the Australian Government suggest that 37,491 people seeking asylum who reached Australia by boat have had some outcome to their refugee status, either a positive or negative decision on their refugee claim or a decision to return home voluntarily before or after a final decision was taken. Of these, 30,464 people (81.3%) have been given some form of permanent or temporary protection in Australia or elsewhere. - Refugee Council of Australia, 2016 Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s historic high came in 2016, when it resettled 27,626 people (largely as a result of an extra commitment to resettle 12,000 people from the Iraqi and Syrian conflicts). - UNHCR, 2019

IMMIGRATION |
As Pacific islanders are affected by seaâ&#x20AC;&#x2018;level rise, coastal erosion, saltwater intrusion and more frequent and intense droughts, increased migration is forecast both within Pacific Island communities as well as to other countries including Australia. It is highly possible that Australia will see more people seeking to relocate to its shores from the Pacific Islands and territories in the near to medium-term future. This has implications not only for Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s border control and management policies but for domestic policies too. The way these are managed is of vital importance for future relationships between Australia and its Pacific neighbours.

- Parker, R., 2018
IMMIGRATION |
In coming years, as the impact of automation and virtual migration is more apparent, and the nature of work shifts, government will be called upon to assist businesses, workers, and communities transition to new industries, new markets, and new jobs. There will be tension as decision-makers seek to balance the needs of the many and ensure the best possible outcome for all levels of society. A key ingredient will be the degree of trust or mandate from the general public. Fear and uncertainty can get in the way of a more reasoned conversation about trade-offs. And perception can triumph over reality. For example, in the past, attitudes to immigration have been closely correlated to the unemployment rate, even though there has been no significant (statistical) association between Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s large-scale immigration program and rates of unemployment. McKenzie, F., 2017

IMMIGRATION |
Across the world, including in Australia, the population of refugee immigrants is growing. Yet, understandings about how best their resettlement needs can be addressed remain under-informed. Despite being in relatively safe environments, adult refugee immigrants in Australia continue to experience poor educational, occupational, and social inclusion challenges. This may be due to compounded effects of possible difficult past refugee life experiences and the often distressing and challenging resettlement experiences.
150
Onsando, G., Riek, J., 2019
IMMIGRATION |
In Australia, people who live in diverse neighbourhoods are more likely to support open immigration or refugee policy. The corollary is that if you live in an area with a smaller proportion of immigrants and refugees, you are more likely to have closed attitudes toward any newcomers. Onsando, G., Riek, J., 2019
151
IMMIGRATION | Multicultural young people are increasingly defined by their mobility, and share connections with local and global communities in ways that are very different to previous generations. This mobility brings about important advantages, such as forms of cross-cultural belonging and literacy that are critical to working and living in increasingly transnational environments. However, they also face challenges that are not well understood by government and the broader community – such as racial discrimination, intergenerational conflict, economic insecurity and social and political exclusion. They are also eager to challenge the stereotype of the grateful migrant and to ask questions about their place in Australian society. They are critical of the ways they are positioned by the media and wider community, but are also optimistic about their ability to change things. Some are critical of their parents’ generation who they believe to be too rigid or inward-looking. This younger generation, by contrast, is flexible and inquisitive. They see themselves as cultural mediators – their identities are shaped not just by their parents’ backgrounds but by their engagement with Australian communities, technology and the global traffic in social media images and ideas. Khan, R., 2017

IMMIGRATION | Throughout human history, the movement of populationsâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;in search of food, shelter, or better economic opportunitiesâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;has been the norm rather than the exception. Today, however, the world is witnessing unprecedented levels of displacement.

SITE COMPOSITION_ In Week 06 we were tasked with a small â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;abstract site planâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; exercise. This exercise allowed us to capture a graphic representation of our site plan based on the Suprematist Movement the was big in the earlth 20th Century. The Suprematist style meant that we needed to create a simple graphic that envisioned clarity, purity of geometry & powerful symbolism. I chose to create my abstract site plan using a mixture of marker & pencil in order to make certain elements in the composition pop whilst still outlining the context surrounding the Edge of Bounty.

THE BLOCK ATTACK_ This exercise asked us to investigate a city given to us & analyse the urban outcomes that come from the size of the blocks, the composition of the blocks, the circulation network, the heirachy of streets, the programme, the city’s public realm & the city’s urban strategies. Although originally being designated as a group exercise, as each group had 3 people & we were given 3 cities each member branched off & focused on 1 city [although it is important to note that I helped out both of my group member- Alyssa Berona | Shenzen & Megan Murray | Barcelon with their cities]. The city I focused on was Chicago, Illinois. I found this task both quite interesting & quite useful, as the size & composition of the smaller blocks weren’t that dissimilar to that of Melbourne’s Hoddle Grid meaning that I could take away a lot learnings from the success & failures of this type of block with the main takeaways being that the size of the block has a lot to do with how permeable it is to pedestrians, & that street heirachy is intrinsically linked to how safe pedestrians feel. I also found through class sharing the benefits & weaknesses in other cities’ block attacks, & although some seemed potentially better than the Hoddle Grid, in order to get the most out of the site I finally came to the conclusion that the Hoddle Grid’s success should be continued through my site in order to connect the city to the water.

From the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s humble genesis as a fur trading outpost on its swampy shores to becoming an economic powerhouse thanks a vital 1884 canal connection to the illinois and mississippi rivers, the chicago river has been central to it all.

CHICAGO | ARRANGEMENT OF BLOCKS MIXED-USE | Buildings with service and commercial uses on the ground floor that serve surrounding neighborhoods Residential or office uses above the ground floor
HEIGHTS | 2+ stories Buildings typically have a footpath
194
CHICAGO | ARRANGEMENT OF BLOCKS COMMERCIAL | Concentration of commercial uses that draw from a large area May be stand-alone commercial buildings May be part of mixed-use buildings
HEIGHTS | Height varies considerably from one-story commercial buildings to high-rise mixed-use, residential & office buildings. Buildings adjoin footpath. Surface parking lots & parking structures are common.
195
CHICAGO | ARRANGEMENT OF BLOCKS DOWNTOWN | High-rise mixed-use, residential or office buildings centrally located within the city.
HEIGHTS | Buildings are tall and dense. Footpaths are wide & buildings adjoin the footpath.
196
CHICAGO | ARRANGEMENT OF BLOCKS INDUSTRIAL | Manufacturing, wholesale & industrial uses May be organized into a campus or industrial corridor Requires accommodation for large trucks
HEIGHTS | Height is 1-4 stories Buildings may adjoin the footpath but entrances are oriented away from streets, to internal access
197
CHICAGO | ARRANGEMENT OF BLOCKS RESIDENTIAL | Single family houses Low density multi family buildings Non-residential uses (e.G. Schools & churches)
HEIGHTS | 1-3 stories with a 4.5m front yard setback Properties may have a gated front yard in addition to a footpath & parkway
198
CHICAGO | ARRANGEMENT OF BLOCKS INSTITUTION OR CAMPUS | Large-scale development (2+ acres) under unified control & organized like a campus typically surrounded by gates & controlled access
HEIGHTS | Various building types mostly facing inward to a courtyard; not the street
199
CHICAGO | ARRANGEMENT OF BLOCKS PARKS | Intentional open spaces such as parks, forest preserves, & bodies of water Street entirely within or bordering a park Park-like medians
HEIGHTS | These areas are not defined by their buildings (which are internal) but do have discernible edges
200
CHICAGO | ARRANGEMENT OF BLOCKS The cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mapping system identifies about 20,800 unique blocks in the city_ These are blocks surrounded typically by four streets in a rectangular pattern, but also possibly having different shapes and sizes depending on the development pattern of a given area. - Breen, J., 2017
201
CHICAGO | AVERAGE PLOT SIZE Paragonah, Utah and Chicago, Illinois share the exact same block structure; their grids are almost dimensional duplicates. However, their independent characters, land use intensities, and population densities could not be further apart from each other. While they share the same grid, Paragonah and Chicago have developed in dramatically different ways. This is one of the greatest testaments to the grid plan’s flexibility.

Chicago exhibits the closest approximation of a single perfect grid with the majority of its streets falling into just four bins centered on 0°,90°,180°,and 270°.Its φ = 0.90, suggesting it is 90% of the way between perfect disorder and a single perfect grid, somewhat remarkable for such a large city. - Boeing, G. , 2019

CHICAGO | STRATEGIC ANALYSIS
218
GARFIELD GREEN HOUSING PROJECT | The design prioritizes sustainability by using solar panels to supply all energy needs, modular construction materials made in little village, and a green roof that will grow food and help with stormwater runoff. Also included in the proposal is a plan for a clinic to address health issues like an increase in asthma rates.
CHICAGO | STRATEGIC ANALYSIS
LEDS ARE REPLACING THE ORANGE HIGH-PRESSURE SODIUM LIGHTS | The city’s smart lighting program is saving money & will need less replacing with an automated system will tell city workers when a replacement is required. On the other hand, some researchers believe the brightness of chicago’s new lights can adversely affect residents’ health, local wildlife, and even crime rates.
219
CHICAGO | STRATEGIC ANALYSIS AMBITIOUS PLAN TO BURY CHICAGO’S LAKE SHORE DRIVE AND CREATE NEW PARK SPACE | At its heart, the plan would straighten out and bury Lake Shore Drive’s tight and dangerous Oak Street S-bend and would provide unfettered pedestrian access to 70 acres of newly created lakefront parkland, beaches, trails, and a breakwater island. The improvements would buffer the roadway from the routine abuse dealt by crashing winter waves as well as fix the dysfunctional Chicago Avenue bottleneck by removing traffic signals and adding new interchange ramps. - KOZIARZ, J., 2017
220
221
CHICAGO | STRATEGIC ANALYSIS CHICAGO CENTRAL AREA PLAN | The scheme focuses on increasing density, encouraging mixed-use development, and strengthening transportation connections in the urban core. Specifically, it calls for high-density, mixed-use infill neighborhoods for 50,000 new residents â&#x20AC;&#x201D; an approach that could potentially save more than 500-square-miles of regional open space and agricultural land. It also recommends the creation of a new intermodal transit center, linking commuter and intercity rail with an exclusive bus and subway station. The plan offers solutions for how to improve conditions in the booming downtown area, which has seen tremendous growth in the office, retail, educational, and residential sectors in the past two decades. - SOM, 2004
222
223
CHICAGO | STRATEGIC ANALYSIS CHICAGO LAKESIDE MASTERPLAN | The neighborhood would include housing, businesses, and green space. Every home would sit within a three-minute walk to a park, and residents and visitors alike would have waterfront access. The cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rail and bus system would serve the district, and pedestrian and bicycle paths would connect with downtown. Other sustainable strategies include water recycling, native landscaping programs, and the use of solar and wind power. - SOM, 2010
224
225
CHICAGO | STRATEGIC ANALYSIS CHICAGO LAKESIDE MASTERPLAN | The plan also includes a neighborhood utility to operate district energy systems, as well as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;living labâ&#x20AC;? prototype to promote new green technologies. Each building will plug into the district infrastructures, eliminating the need for chillers and boilers. The plan also calls for highefficiency building envelopes and MEP systems, and it outlines energy, water, and waste reduction goals. - SOM, 2010
226
227
CHICAGO | STRATEGIC ANALYSIS BUILDING SKYSCRAPERS ON CHICAGO’S SWAMPY SOIL | Architects in Chicago have dug enough foundations to know their way around the city’s famously swampy soil. But in many cities geotechnical engineers are still searching for solid footing. - SOM, 2015

VERTICAL GARDENING OFFERS A NUMBER OF ADVANTAGES: - vertical plantings increase growing space in small areas & are easily maintained. they can be as simple as existing structures such as a balcony railing, fence, trellis, arbor, or garden wall. - vertical gardens can also be custom made to match a gardenerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comfortable reaching range, offering defined gardening spaces & opportunities for persons with impaired vision or other challenges. - a wide variety of flowers and vegetables are suitable for vertical gardening, & harvesting is relatively easy. - CHICAGO BOTANIC GARDEN
230
CHICAGO | VERTICAL INTEGRATION STRATEGIES
Chicago is becoming the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s urban farming epicenter, with the Chicago Urban Agriculture Mapping Project reporting more than 821 growing sites across the city, ranging from community and school gardens to rooftop farms, orchards, and multi-acre urban farms. With a cornucopia of new ag startups, from rooftop greenhouses to high-tech vertical farms, the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s growing agriculture movement is looking to deliver fresh produce even in the coldest Chicago winter. According to one study, vertical farming is expected to be a nearly $4 billion market globally by 2020. The greens market for Chicagoland alone is $400 million dollars. - LINK, J., 2016
231
CHICAGO | VERTICAL INTEGRATION STRATEGIES Competing in the Chicago vertical farm market is Urban Till, which has brought in $3.13 million in investments since 2013. Urban Till uses hydroponics growing technology & distributes mainly to local fresh food restaurants and Farmed Here sells to supermarkets. The greenhouse model of Gotham Greens opened a 75,000-square-foot rooftop farm in Chicago’s Pullman Park neighborhood and currently employs 45 people, from hourly seeders and harvesters to sales associates and plant scientists. A vertical farm is lit by artificial light - plants thrive in a photosynthetically active radiation range between 400 and 700 nanometers and that LEDs only emit light at peak frequencies–480, 560, 700–missing a large part of the spectrum. 75% of U.S. consumers live within 200 miles of a city, where vertical farming’s apparent advantages over outdoor agriculture–year-round growth, a small geographic footprint, a high yield per cubic foot ratio, and an often shorter distance to market–make it particularly appealing.
232
â&#x20AC;&#x153;People want to know where their food comes from and cut out transportation miles to get more freshnessâ&#x20AC;?
233
CHICAGO | VERTICAL INTEGRATION STRATEGIES VERTICAL GARDENS SPROUT AT CHICAGO AIRPORT | 26 aeroponic grow towers were installed between terminals 2 and 3 last year. Aeroponic refers to a method of hydroponic, or vertical gardening, in which seeds are planted in small cubes of nutrient-dense spun volcanic rock, which holds in water and naturally biodegrades. - ILFBPARTNERS, 2012

MAKING A MARK | URBAN AFFILIATIONS_ Our mid semester presentations gave us the first opportunity to start investigating our return briefs & designing our masterplans. This masterplan then became the foundation for our design response & a starting point for the feel that our design strategy will produce. In the lead up to this mid semester presentation, I became quite sick meaning that I was not able to produce what I had planned to produce for this submission & this eventually lead to my constantly catching up for the rest of the semester. However, looking back on this presentation I think that I was able to create some good design intentions & responses, & I think given the time I could have strengthened my presentation through investigating more on the building typologies & place making aspects.

PLACE-MAKING
macro & micro urban stance
Overcrowding on footpaths poses a serious threat to pedestrian safety... Melbourne City Council is flagging the idea of having 'superblocks', which would remove cars from the Hoddle Grid and Docklands and prioritise pedestrians. Precel, N., 2018

MID SEMESTER [FEEDBACK]
01
PANEL FEEDBACK_ » Good starting point & analytics_
» Where do you want your project to go next?
» how does this land on the ground?
» What do you want to next iterate on?
» too much time spent on this
» Personal Goals
» futher explore blue lake/greenfrastructure
» weaving back into the area » extending grid is good but explore in further detail
» city connection is good » make sure to only use green for open space
» work through graphics for clarity » don’t be afraid to transform the topography
» what is over & under decking » water channeling is great
» explore further in plan » how does that turn into a project for yourself & how does that support your urban site
270
02
ELLEN’S FEEDBACK_
» the blocks at the northern part of the city continue into the site & connect to the stadium [finer grain fabric of west melbourne]
» Self Observations
03
IAN’S FEEDBACK_ » IGood reallystarting like your point research & analytics_ into history and heritage along with current zoning » There are some fascinating arguments for public space as public space, free of commercial imperatives, and we really need ideas like that at this time. Good for you! » Maybe really create a big blue lake and shift the stadium over the tracks somewhere closer to southern cross
» putting the stadium where everyone seems to be putting it is not a great place for it. » If North Melbourne station becomes the main access to the stadium, it’ll need to be re-designed! » Maybe look at adding a new station straddling Dudley St
04
OTHER PRESENTATIONS FEEDBACK_ » urban & civic location » Braugruppen style/nightingale » food disassociation » if we consume the way we currently do, crop production will need to double by 2050 » higher education » innovation companies » community education » social enterprise - ‘street’ style » visualise what you want in smaller zones & then how it may deploy across the site » proximity to people & key urban contributions
» it’s on the halfway point between N Melb and Southern X » Could provide improved access to a stadium over the tracks there.

SITE VISION_ This exercise gave us the opportunity to get some peer-reviewed feedback on our working masteplans. Between our mid semester presentation & the completion of this exercise I was able to start building up my building typologies, which I was unable to include in my mid semester presentation, although at this stage I was reconsidering moving where I placed the stadium & how this would affect the e-gate part of the site. Since this exercise, when playing around with the vertical parameters of the site I found that it would have been too challenging to place the stadium here due to the limitations of the encapsulated rail, so I moved the stadium back to where I had it at mid semester [although I did alter the composition of this stadium in the final].

The West Melb site is actually much higher than E-Gate, that plus the elevated rail.

CONNECTIVE TISSUE_ This Week 08 exercise saw us present to our studio peers our design thinkings when it came to tackling the siteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s public realm. Throughout the semester I found that the best way to solve the major disconnect of the Edge of Bounty site as well as mitigate the effects of the site being a brownfield site was to implement the use of an artifical deck to link both sides of the site; the city & the water, & docklands & North [West] Melbourne. Thus, when it came to this exercise I wanted to show my classmates how this would look realistically so the graphic I went will was a sectional perspective of just North of La Trobe street where I have utilised the artificial deck & the siteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural topographical shift at spencer street to continue the Hoddle Grid over the encapsulated rail network & ramped the decking down to meet Victoria Harbour.

FINAL PROJECT | EDGE OF BOUNTY_ The following is my Final Presentation submission for Design Studio B_Edge of Bounty. Even though, I feel that there is still a lot to go [more to be investigated, tested, regenerated, conceptualised & created] I believe I managed to resolve how the topographical technicalities that can be created by artificial decking thus solving the main driving issue of the initial site; the disconnect of the city to the water & the docklands to North Melbourne Station. This project looks at the topographic architecture that can come to fruition of utilising this artifical decking & the visual urban farming that can be implemented in this topography creating food offerings throughout the site, water management, & ultimately, [with the new waste to energy plant integrated stadium] community awareness of metabolic processes including water, waste & food harvesting; circular economic possibilities.

PRECINCT_CELEBRATING THE PAST festival hall | west tower | station
EXCERPT FROM SPEECH | Âť The main take away that I got from the first half of the semester is that our site seems to have ignored the latent histories of its past both, culturally and physically. The edge of bounty site is layered with both aboriginal and colonial heritages from the legend of the blue lake to the maritime shipping yards that culminated in this brownfields site.

PRECINCT_CELEBRATING THE PAST festival hall | west tower | station
EXCERPT FROM SPEECH | Âť When the docklands originally began its gentrification 30 years ago, although the proposition of the site had good prospects what eventuated was a site that was predominantly commercial buildings & high-rise apartment blocks, meaning what came from this initial gentrification was repeated criticism, largely for being overly market driven at the expense of urban design outcomes linked to social & environmental criteria.
The docklands revitalisation did not seem to take on any long-term gains such as green spaces, education & cultural activities.

» This decking will be used itself as a water collection and retention structure meaning that water can be filtered through each later of the grounds water in order to be saved for later in retention ponds. This topography will also reduce the site’s heat island effect as it will mean the implementation of a green landscape rather than a concrete one. This landscape will allow for lead to plants attracting pollinator bird and insect species and will release oxygen and moisture into the air helping to build a more stable microclimate for people and animals to take refuge in our ever-intensifying climate. » In addition, the topography retain water for irrigation in times of drought, the cascading layers of the artificial decking also slowdown runoff in times of heavy rainfall thus allowing the ground to retain its mass and nutrients

Wetlands may have open water ponds at the inlet and outlet, but should otherwise be planted so densely that the water is not easily visible. This avoids problems such as algal growth and sediment re-suspension through wind and waves. - Monk, E., 2006

EXCERPT FROM SPEECH | » Instead wasting the new and existing building’s rooftops, which in itself contributes to urban heat islands, I’ll be ensuring that rooftops across the site will either be used for rooftop gardens, or solar power or a combination of both, ensuring that these buildings are supplying clean energy in terms of both solar power and organic food sourcing » This precinct also hopes to make small-scale profits from its food production enhancing the site’s economy and creating employment and business opportunities to its community. This combined with the implementation of social intervention mixed-use will hopefully make way for a more diverse community. » By embracing not only the intention of organic, but also regenerative agriculture, it ensures a food source beneficial to both the health of humans and nature. » By establishing a functioning and self-sustaining farming model which puts the human well-being and ecological health at core, I hope this design redefines not only the site but urban agriculture
