5.2 Survey Methodology & Conclusions
5.1 TAKEAWAYS
The COMMUNITY, which is one of the important stakeholders, was included in the process through an open interview. Some of the conclusions were as follows: The safety factor is related to the routes taken by the van carrying the criminals. There is lack of community building amenities, and the streets lack liveness and activities.
The locality is quiet and enjoy a rich ecology. Circus is one of the major factors that people associate the space with along with fishing.
JAIL AUTHORITIES AND GUARDS were interviewed to understand the current conditions of the Jail and the difficulties that are faced.
Jail authority and the corresponding staff find it difficult and time consuming to maintain in terms of economy as well as co-ordination. The Jail is a house for many criminals and face security related issues due to the growing residential, slums and infrastructure around the jail. Currently, since the gang culture and related serious crimes have reduced, the no. of criminals with life imprisonment and major crimes have declined in the Jail with maximum ratio of people with minor crimes and under-trial.

6.4 COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS
Figure 91 Comparative analysis for the detailed Case study in each Category (Right) (Source: Author)
6.4 CONCLUSION
1. adaptive reuse
GENERAL - The historic narrative is made relevant to present times through functions and experiential quality. - The possible functions in jail and fort can be assigned considering the architectural quality and site attributes.
SITE SPECIFIC - The barracks with great height and column-free long span can be used as a rehearsal space. - The rooms in the fort can be used for experiential accommodation. - The watch tower of the Jail can be modified to create viewing decks exploring its strategic location for viewing the entire site.
2. ecology
GENERAL - The existing landscape is used as an allied function for connecting the lines between history and present.
SITE SPECIFIC - The existing waterbody and farms can be used to create micro climate and conserve
the native ecology.
- Similarly, the farms and the creek eco-system with bird diversity on site can be conserved and promoted on site.
3. ‘smart’ city
GENERAL - According to the objectives below, the intervention can allow smart development in the Urban context, uplifting the city.
SITE SPECIFIC - The sustainability aspect can be explored in terms of reuse of the space with the functions derived by community involvement. - These functions can be a great addition to the city and can be achieved by collaboration between public and private sectors. - The digital advancement and technology are used to attract visitors. It also would allow to bring the traditional artform to a larger platform, promoting it to a larger crowd.
GENERAL - The proportion of Private, semi-public and public functions in the intervention and their economic attribute impact various factors like Safety, Accessibility,
Community Engagement, etc. - More percentage of private/ Revenue generating public spaces:
Less accessible to all economic groups, Less community engagement, safer, More income. - More percentage of public / non-Revenue or nominal charged public space:
More open to all economic groups, More community engagement, Less income, less safe.
SITE SPECIFIC - Thus, according to the stakeholders and considerations for the intervention, A balance between: HISTORY-PRESENT, PUBLIC-PRIVATE, REVENUE- NON-REVENUE, etc
should be achieved.
5. traditional and historic background
GENERAL - The said attributes can be used to make citizens aware, benefitting both the
community at micro level as well as the city at whole.
SITE SPECIFIC - The local culture and festivals can also be promoted, which in turn can draw out income making the intervention sustainable and also a value addition for the city and its lifestyle. - This can also be an opportunity for the locals (Talims, training centres, horse renting communities, etc) inducing economic growth.
6. urban courtyard
GENERAL - The functions and degree of public and private also varied according to the fabric of the context. In a dense urban setting, the influence of the community around is great and the nature of intervention is more public. Whereas more private functions are accommodated in the outskirts of the city.
SITE SPECIFIC - Thane central jail is surrounded by a dense urban fabric and thus should have a great
social engagement.
- This urban courtyard can be a value addition to the city in terms of ecology, culture,
history, technology, etc
- The program is thus derived considering various stakeholders.

7.1 DESIGN GOALS
To explore and reimagine Thane Jail, an old infrastructure, as an ‘Urban courtyard’, tying knots between its glorious history and future smart city. It can also set an example for such infrastructure which need to be made relevant in today’s time.
To open the space for the people and communities around by an architectural intervention making the Jail premise more relevant and discarding the negative notions associated with it.
To create an identity of the city, exploring its unique culture, historic context and the rich bio-diversity that exists. It would not only make the citizens aware but also induce a sense of pride about the place they reside in.
The intervention aims at revitalisation of the culture and history of the city which would be an economic driver from the community around and the city at large.
The existing farms can be developed into an urban farming practice. Along with farms, the green areas can be protected and enhanced with native plants will create zones for the diverse birds.
The huge fort walls can be of great smart addition to create art walls, digital informative walls, (displaying positives of the city, advertisements, disaster reliefs, etc) advertisements which would also help in revenue generation.
The spaces with its flexible nature can facilitate resilience during the times of city stress. (COVID)
Adaptive reuse of the space (structure & material) with proportionate allocation of public, semi-public, private functions, will facilitate Low consumption, sustainability and crater to maintenance of the entire intervention.
7.2 FOUNDATION FOR SPACE REUSE
A public space is the heart of the city and its fabric has many layers associated with it. Reuse of a public space like the old infrastructure should crater to all the layers ensuring efficiency. Newly accommodated program in such spaces would define its response and effectiveness.
A sustainable development of crumbling infrastructure can be established through functions which are determined based on 3 factors:
based on traditional activity
REIS MAGOS FORT, GOA Though the fort was restored, it had not been rejuvenated as a building due to the lack of life in it. Hence a music school was established. It also houses public functions to keep the liveliness to address the idea of public realm in the fort.
This not only was a valuable addition to public spaces of the city but also a timeless element of music in existing heritage of Goa was associated with it.

based on architectural potential of structure
STEPWELLS
Water buildings like stepwells, will never return to serve as they did in the past. Its unique typology can be preserved by reusing them for a new function. The architectural features like the huge steps, corridors, play of light and shadow, compartmentalised planning, etc has the potential to convert a stepwell into Haats / Markets, Exhibition spaces, etc. This helped in preserving architectural and cultural heritage, which also serves economic purpose of displaying techniques and lifestyles.
