Master Plan

Legend3

Affordable housing is proposed in close proximity to the nearby metro station.

School is located within the residential neighborhood with easy access from arterial road.

Olympic ceremonial path is retained which could be used for marathon and such events.

Shopping Mall along SP ring road can attract more public

Assets retained from Olympic master plan are media village converted to commercial use, Olympic stadium, thoroughfares, athlete accomodation converted to student housing, ceremonial path to be used for marthon and such events, waterways, practice ground and exhibition center shifted closer to stadium.

Retained Olympic Assets

Agriculture and research academy would help in maintaining proposed vertical farming

With greenhouses extending from the agriculture research academy, the retained water body edge is treated ecologically sensitive. For the stadium to be used to its fullest during non-event days, a sports academy is proposed nearby, which would also be responsible for its maintenance.

Park has diverse functions like flower gardens, children’s park, sports courts, fountains, food court extension, cycle and public green trails.

Park and other spaces are designed by keeping a buffer space from the stadium which can accommodate larger public during events.

Pedestrian prioritized streets (with paving and demarcated pedestrian crossings) ensure safe movement and flexible functions.

Public Open Space

Event Days: pedestrian prioritized streets with intermediate transit stops thus can encourage more visitors to utilized public transportation.

The open space can adapt to accommodate large public, temporary stalls, venues and host public events.

The larger public can access stadium area from all the major roads in the immediate neighborhood without much disturbance to the residential area.

The waterfront is designed to be flexible as per water level as its non perennial stream. Water sport events can take place when water level is high enough.

Built Character Facing Public Open space

Mixed use block by the waterfront: The block by the waterfront facing stadium are hotels, office space and service apartments with active ground floor commercial along the arterial road as podium typology.

Key Map

Mixed Use Block Guidelines

Goal: Development responding to diverse open space system.

Setbacks:

Built edge facing the arterial shall be built to line with retail and cafes on podium ground floor.

Vehicular Access and Parking:

Vehicular access is restricted to either edges to access groundfloor parking.

Pedestrian movement is encouraged continuously along the built edge abutting private open space.

Pedestrian and cycle path along the water edge shall be connected to the pedestrian boulevard along the street adjacent to ensure smooth pedestrian transition.

Open space Guideline

Minimum 30% of plot shall be left as private open space facing the water edge.

The built edge facing open space shall be physically accessible with some sports facilities extending to open space.

Built-form

The built form shall be of podium type up to 6m height.

A step back of 15m after every 4 floors after podium floors shall be kept on any one side facing stadium.
