URBAN DESIGN PROJECT
MIDWEST CITY STUDY LOCATION Philadelphia, PA DATE 2014 Fall INSTRUCTOR Evan Rose SCALE 1.5 Acre MY ROLE Lead urban designer
This research project identified and analyzed major population and lifestyle trends that impact urban development in the Midwest region of the U.S. The study revealed three macro trends within the region: a shifting population, challenges of de-industrialization, an increase in connectivity and demands for life quality. While migration to the nation’s urban city centers remains a defining micro trend, Midwest cities continue to lose population as people relocate to South and both coasts. The research was a high level overview that help the team evaluate the impact of its current project works within the broader context of the region, and make effective strategies for future opportunities.

URBAN DESIGN PROJECT
8080 SOUTHWORKS LOCATION Chicago, IL DATE 2017 Spring SCALE 440 Acre MY ROLE Lead urban designer
10
Brownfield is a classic problem for many Rust Belt cities, which is also an important issue needs for evaluation in redevelopment process. The team worked with Barcelona Housing System on the master plan that can create 20,000 modular homes, retail, office and cultural space, as well as a factory that make components for modular homes. We envisioned the creation of a unique, sustainable, innovative waterfront destination that meets Chicago’s growing needs for affordable, workforce, and the market rate rental housing.
8080 SOUTHWORKS SITE PLAN
11
Over the last two decades numerous plan have been proposed on the site. To date, none have been successfully implemented due to different reasons. The New Southworks on Lakeshore addressed this challenge by building a new model of community rooted in history and counded on technology, sustainability, and livability. New Southworks will re-engage the wards with the lake and provide a community that enhances the quality of life for the region. Balancing the regional draw of lake front amenities with a neighborhood for future industry workders and southeast side wommunities, the project will help to restore vitality and vibrancy to vestige of the regions industrial past.

LAKE COOK CORRIDOR LOCATION Buffalo Grove, IL DATE 2016-2017 SCALE 472 Acre MY ROLE Lead urban designer
Buffalo Grove is a village located 35 miles northwest of Chicago, IL. One of the village’s significant asset is Lake Cook Corridor, which includes the Town Center, Retail Plaza, corporate campus and the municipal campus. However, the Corridor today is facing challenges due to regional and national shifts in market, demographic, housing, lifestyle and travel and consumption patterns. The project represented nearly two years of consensus building, data collection and analysis, charrettes, and discussions among the Village, residents and business owners and all other stakeholders. This project repositioned the Corridor by strategies such as enhancing visibility, suggest mix of land uses, build notable landmarks, attract young professionals, and provide more land opportunities for redevelopment. My role is the major urban designer from the start to the end.

In Post Oak Master Plan, the goal was to create a vibrant, people-centered place with a sustainable future. This mixed-use project not only focused on to meet the needs of the residential and oï¬&#x192;ce tenants, but also focused on the street experience including retail environments and public realm. The diagrams are the urban framework design section of the client presentation. I used a storyboard approach to show how the team design the framework for the site, massing requirement, and two solid plan alternatives.

NEIGHBORHOODS INTEGRATION
LOCATION Philadelphia, PA DATE 2014 Fall INSTRUCTOR Evan Rose SCALE 1.5 Acre
Philadelphia ranks the 9th segregated city in the U.S. The segregation, racially and social-economically. They can be easily noticed along the boundary of neighborhoods. Brewerytown is one of a typical place associated with economic and racial segregation issue. The south and north neighborhood are of entirely different characters, such as building vacancy rate, home value, safety and etc. The question for urban designer to think about is, how we tear down the unnatural barriers between neighborhoods, and how we use place-making as a tool to connect and help establish more opportunity and energy to the community.

Likes many other places in Philadelphia, Brewerytown is a typical place that has neighborhood walls. The south neighborhood are of high home values, low vacancy rate, clean roads and luxuriant trees, while the north neighborhood is featured with low house value, vacant and dangerous buildings and unsafe streets.
By investigating the demographic feature for both neighborhoods, a lot of common features can be found even though they have different look in they city. They all have a high ratio of married couple with kids and a diversity of ages. Their commute time is different but both groups significantly use public transit. Great programs should help to maximum the chance that both groups could mix and communicate.

Girard Avenue is an important transit and retail corridor in the area. People come to the street for trolley bus and amenities. Poplar Street is a quiet and residential street. They are both great street but lack of organic links between them.

DESIGN AND INTERVENTIONS In the middle of the site is an old abandoned brewery factory. And between the two parcel is a service alley but no trucks can get in. Considering city owns both parcels, the place can be converted to a great civic space for residents. Once combined, the plaza is symmetrically facing to the two neighborhoods and showing an embracing gesture. People from two neighborhoods can come and mix here, as well as people who and come back from work to go for shopping in the market.
STRATEGIES The overlapped area is a leveraging opportunity to activate these three places. The two vacant parcels provide a number of possibilities to help create a real connective and vibrant community.

WANGFUJING HOTEL DESIGN
LOCATION Beijing, China DATE 2012 Spring INSTRUCTOR Ying Sun SCALE 430,550 sqft
Beijing is a city with long history and rich culture. However, one of the most challenging urban problems is that the city is gradually losing its unique urban fabric, which are crucial to maintain its memory. In the new hotel design, to rebuild a human scale place for people to stay and enjoy the semi-space between building and city is the key to the entire plan. Architecture is not only digging into itself about the interiors, but also about the concern to the relationship among people, space and the city.
