INTERIOR DROSS
Urbanized Landscapes and the Interior Remains BRIEF Interior Dross explores the relationships between horizontal urbanization, the interior built environment and the context of Lincoln, NE. Horizontal urbanization is most often referred to as “sprawl”, that is the spread or development of urban infrastructure irregularly or without restraint and usually deemed unattractive. Sprawl usually evokes a negative connotation, however in Alan Berger’s Drosscape he refers to sprawl as “an unintended consequence, the overflow or spillover of urbanization”, and in a sense, an inevitable byproduct of “life’s expansionist, waste-making tendencies”.1 Interior Dross embraces this non polarized attitude and seeks for opportunity in these vast and rapidly growing landscapes within the context of Lincoln. Berger’s Drosscape proposes that when used as a verb, “drosscraping is a sort of scavenging of the urbanized surfaces for interstitial landscape remains.”2 For our purposes, we will be scavenging for interior landscapes under the categories defined by Berger: waste landscapes of dwelling, transition, infrastructure, obsolescence, exchange and contamination within the context of the Lincoln community. This project will ask students to be critical of Lincoln’s urbanized landscape and how to identify building typologies that fall into Berger’s dross categories. What opportunities do these underutilized, vacant or abandoned infrastructures present? How can the interior built environment be positioned to connect communities and enhance the social quality of neighborhoods and environment? How can expansive, horizontal infrastructure be re-imagined as dense city hubs that increase the social, economic and environmental value of underused infrastructure?

“...today’s city is so diffuse that it has become a “galactic metropolis”, a city-form resembling a galaxy of stars and planets, with large empty areas in-between, held together with something akin to gravitational attraction.”3 SITE: LINCOLN DROSS 1. Waste Landscapes of Dwelling (#d5add) 2. Waste Landscapes of Transition (#465ca9) 3. Waste Landscapes of Infrastructure(#7ba5d7) 4. Waste Landscapes of Obsolescence (#6ec498) 5. Waste Landscapes of Exchange (#d4e162) 6. Waste Landscapes of Contamination (#c26c28) INTERIOR AS TYPOLOGY Horizontal urbanization is ubiquitous and not limited to our immediate context of Lincoln, therefore Lincoln will act as a proto-site, or test site. Students will explore the Lincoln landscape as an initial point of reference and translate and elaborate findings to a domestic, universal scale. Questions for consideration: _What “core/shell” conditions of Berger’s dross categories exist in Lincoln? Structural systems? Grid/Regulating lines? Apertures? Size and scale of buildings and site? Volumes? _Are these “core/shell” conditions present elsewhere? _Are there building patterns? Proximities? Clustering? _Are there geographic/infrastructural patterns within Lincoln and beyond? _Growth/expansion patterns?

Housing in the United States has varied greatly throughout history. Housing types were most commonly influenced by external factors such as resources or international influence. Innovative periods such as the industrial revolution have had impact on dwelling types but how they are constructed today. These housing types and influences date back to the 1600’s. Our most general characterizations date up to the 1930’s where most of the single family residential types presented in the timeline are still being built today. The most common use of materials include wood, but innovative methods began to introduce bricks, stone, wood, and stucco. Today we see engineered and prefabricated forms of construction, these materials include but are not limited to plastic sidings and other engineered materials. Types:

LANDSCAPE OF TRANSITION
IDES351 PROJECT 2
A parking space is a simple element, it is a spot to keep a car when it is not in use. A parking space is the transition of an activity.
SPRING 2019
In the United States, there are around 500 million parking spaces taking up around 3,590 square miles. The United States population is only 326 million.
Parking lots and garage industry has expanded in line with overall construction activity in the past 5 years. The industry has grown 1.1% to reach revenue of $10 billion in 2019, the number of businesses has grown .8%, and the number of employees has grown by 1.8%. As businesses and population grows, the demand for parking also increases.

HISTORY ON THE AUTOMOBILE & PARKING Horses were the main means of transportation for while, even when the first automobile was invented, until the early 1900s. In the 19th century, cities were filled with stables, which were the parking garages of that time, and would charge the same for stalling a horse. The fuel for the horses was oats, barley, hay and straw, which later was turned into gasoline for automobiles. The advent of the automobile overrode the horse-drawn vehicles in the early 1900s. The first gas station was installed in 1905, which began the higher demand of vehicle transportation. In 1907 there was a 33-fold increase in the number of cars registered to people, which put the number up to around 5 million. The reason for this major increase was due to the major price decrease in cars, in 1908 the price was $850 and in 1916 the price was only $260. As more cars began to take up the streets, the demand for a place to park grew bigger. Parking instantly became a problem and cities were looking for a solution to park as many cars as possible on as little space as possible. The first multi story parking garage was built in 1918 for a hotel, and it was several blocks away from the hotel.

HISTORY ON THE AUTOMOBILE & PARKING
There were 2 different ideas about cars, one was that it was just a machine, and the other was the feeling of freedom associated with driving the car and being mobile. These two ideas sparked the two types of parking garages, the mechanized garage and a garage with ramps. Mechanized garages had attendants who would place the car on a platform, with car lifts and turntables, the car was automatically moved up to a parking spot. These types of parking could reduce the space allocated to parking by 40%, but it did not have the freedom of parking your own car or the freedom to enter or exit when you wanted. The mechanized garage existed from about 1920 until 1960, which was when land constraints did not follow the requirements to continually expand the construction of the mechanized garages.
Parking garages soon replaced the mechanized parking garages in the 1950s when there was a construction boom. Parking garages with ramps made it possible to have the freedom of parking your own car, and entering and exiting on their own. The ramps, however were a challenge to build, they couldn’t be too long because then parking space would be lost, but they couldn’t be too short because then cars wouldn’t be able to drive up them. Although there was some disadvantages with the ramps, the ability to park cars on your own was more important to people.
Autonomous vehicles are forcing developers of parking garages to future-proof parking structures from the outset of their construction. Real estate developers are beginning to build new parking garages to be easily converted into office spaces. Although building parking structures to be easily converted into other spaces, it comes with a set of problems. The high ceilings required for a parking garage gives less space in the converted building, the ramps within parking garages make for uninhabitable space on the interior. Developers have to think about reinforcing floors to accommodate the load of cars as well as the columns. Although some problems exist, this seems to be the future of parking.

WHAT IS A TRANSITION SPACE?
“Waste landscapes of transition (LOTs) reveal the transitory nature of capital investment and realestate speculations. Some LOTs are intentionally designed and built as transitional land uses, such as staging areas, storage yards, parking surfaces, transfer stations, etc. Others act as a holding ground until real-estate values increase.” -Drosscape: Wasting Land in Urban America Alan Berger
Timeline of a Transition Space. TIMELINE OF A TRANSITION SPACE
-Land is for sale -REIT’s (Real Estate Investment trust) which is a company that finances, owns, and sometimes operates real estate buys the land to convert it. -Land is bought which is an investment for the company who bought it. -Company loses money in this investment -Land is converted into a storage unit
-Land is converted into a storage unit and can begin producing revenue from consumers over time. -Land functions as a storage which produces a large revenue from a considerably small investment. -During this time of ‘transition’ the plans for further developement can be implemented. -Once the plans have been completed, and enough revenue from the storage unit has been accumulated, the land can be converted into something else.
-Land is now functioning as something else such as an office space, which is what the company originially intended the land to be used for. -This process allows companies more time to accumulate money which they might not have had before creating this investment.

STORAGE IN LINCOLN, NEBRASKA This map documents the storage units in Lincoln Nebraska. From this map we can notice that the majority of the units run along the major streets and highways in Lincoln. This informs us that the storage lots are surrounded by mainly industrial and vehiclebased institutions due to the fact that storage units are designed around the vehicle. Images to the right show a glimpse of what these lot shapes look like. In terms of simple building structure and materiality, they are similar. In terms of lot size and shape they are different but all share the fact that they crowd and fill the lot that they are on.

INSTITUTIONS SURROUNDING STORAGE
Residential areas are the highest number of areas that surround storage units. This analysis begins to show the comparison of storage units that are adjacent to residential areas and storage units that are not adjacent to storage units. It then shows the median household income and median rent of these areas. It shows that residential areas adjacent to storage units have the two lowest household incomes and residential areas that are not adjacent to storage units have the two highest household incomes and the three highest median rents.

WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE
INDOOR STORAGE UNITS - Indoor storage units are obviously found inside large self storage buildings which may look like warehouse space on the outside. To reach the indoor storage units, you most likely have to pass through some sort of gate or security and then you will have access to various sized storage units. Most storage units are sized from a 5x5 to a 10x30 with everything in between. CLIMATE CONTROLLED STORAGE UNITS - Climate controlled storage is a storage unit which is an indoor storage unit which has temperature and humidity controls to keep temperature constant and humidity out. The advantage of this is to protect unique items which may be damaged do to extreme temperature fluctuations or humidity. The cost of a climate controlled storage unit is going to be a bit more than a typical storage unit because of the special circumstances but the cost is minimal compared to the damage a regular unit will do to your belongings. People living in the South and Midwest should pay special attention to climate controlled units because they will be beneficial to rent if you are planning to rent a storage unit for several months. You can see more information on climate controlled storage here and here, but items such as electronics, art, paintings, photos and wine should be stored in a climate controlled unit no matter what area of the country you live in
typically a separate company from regular self storage facilities and operate a bit differently as well. These companies will deliver a mobile storage unit (they can also be called a Pod and Storage Container) to your home and allow you to fill it at anytime. Once you fill it, they will pick it up and either hold the storage unit at their facility or drive it to the location you need it. It is a convenient option to a traditional storage unit or a moving truck.
Units sizes include: 5’ X 5’ 5’ X 10’ 10’ X 10’ 10’ X 15’ 10’ X 20’ 10’ X 30’
DRIVE UP STORAGE UNITS - These units are probably the most common storage units you see when driving down the road. They are arranged in long lines and have doors similar to your garage door. They have wide aisles so you can easily drive a car or truck directly up to the unit. OUTDOOR STORAGE UNITS - Outdoor units are exactly that…outdoor. They are subjected to the climate, temperature and elements at all times. Most people only use outdoor storage for cars, boats, tractors and RV’s. Some will be similar to a car park with a roof overhead while others may just be a parking lot outside. They are convenient for large vehicles but are not designed for much else, especially your art or wine collection. MOBILE STORAGE UNITS - These are the units you see parked in the front of a person’s house when they are moving or renovating. Mobile storage is

LANDSCAPE OF INFRASTRUCTURE EIDETIC IMAGE
The underside of bridges are commonly viewed as a scary place where crime may occur. This perception is especially prevalent during evening hours where lighting is limited. At the same time, bridges can also provide shelter to the homeless. How can designers make positive use out of this wasted landscape? Do bridges have to be a dark and feared place during the night? This image challenges the norms of how the wasted landscape of a bridge can provide a positive space for the public.

LANDSCAPE OF OBSOLESCENCE - (n) Site locations pertaining to objects that are no longer in use or have retired. There are many examples of types of sites that are waste landscapes of obsolescence. They can be defined as landfills, recycling centers, automobile junkyards, recycling drop offs, garbage collection services, water management centers, and thrift stores. For the scope of this project, we focused on studying sites of landfills, automobile junkyards, and recycling centers in Lincoln, NE.
and businesses and takes them to a transfer station. The transfer station takes them to landfills, recycling centers, compost sites, and waste to energy plants. Waste to energy plants use waste and coverts to electricity which ends up in homes and businesses. The recycling centers take the materials to manufacturing facilities and they convert the materials to products that end up in stores which then end up back in homes and businesses. Users can take old vehicles to automobile junkyards or landfills. The automobile junkyards recycle old parts to go back into vehicles which go back to homes.
This map describes the cycle of garbage and recycling process. The garbage collection service picks up garbage, recyclable materials, and food waste from homes, recycle drop offs,

LANDSCAPE OF EXCHANGE
Abandoned malls and retail centers left behind by new waves of development BRIEF Retail vacancy is on the rise in Lincoln which means there is opportunity for change. There are three main types of exchange points in relation to retail spaces. These include indoor/outdoor shopping malls, strip malls and big box stores. HISTORY Lincoln’s retail landscape has evolved with the trends throughout history. Large scale retail companies have been prevalent in the area for over a century. The department store boom began in 1880 with the construction of the Miller and Paine department store, built on the corner of 12th and O Street, and Herpolsheimer’s at 11th and O Street.
DEPARTMENT STORES Although traditional department stores were on the rise for many years, we see the trend taking a downhill turn. Studies have shown that this is due to the fact that department stores don’t provide shoppers with the most convenient shopping experience, because they don’t have the variety that people are looking for. This lack of variety, coupled with the idea that most department stores sell the same kinds of products from one to the other, are two large factors that contributed to their decline in sales.

LANDSCAPE OF EXCHANGE BIG BOX STORES Traditional department stores with large windows, unique architecture and intricate details became a thing of the past once big box stores came about in the late 1980’s. These structures provide maximum amounts of space in generic building shells. Big box stores gained popularity because of their cost-efficient designs and short construction time lines.
MALLS Shopping malls are beginning to decline. The large department stores are beginning to go out of business, which directly affects malls as a whole. The large department stores within malls were designed to serve as “anchor stores”, which helped with circulation through the mall and provided reference points when navigating the space.

Time line of Department Store Evolution
The time line above shows the evolution of department stores throughout history. From the first recorded department store in 1825 to the first Walmart Discount City in 1962, we see a similar trend in the growth of department stores. The architecture is one of a kind. From the large windows designed to draw shoppers in, to the unique architectural details that are specific and unique to each company. This trend starts to become abandoned in 1988 with the opening of the first Walmart Supercenter, which kicked off the big box craze. FUTURE The future landscape of retail is projected to shift away from the traditional model that we see today. In order to be successful, retailers must give people something to do other than shop. The idea that shopping is the activity is no longer valid. With the rise in online shopping making it easier and quicker to purchase everyday necessities with the click of a button, brick and mortar retailers need to focus on transforming the shopping experience. Future success for malls will rely on them adopting the idea of designing for people and reformatting the current retail landscape into something more experiential.

LANDSCAPES OF CONTAMINATION WASTE LANDSCAPES OF CONTAMINATION According to Alan Berger, waste landscapes of contamination (also known as LOCOs) are sites that have experienced contamination as a result of their previous land use. For interior dross, we defined waste landscapes of contamination as inactive or decommissioned sites due to contamination from various activities on site. In order for these sites to be reactivated (i.e. reestablished), extensive decontamination and/or reclamation must occur. We have found five (5) typologies of LOCOs: airports, military operations, mining, manufacturing, and storage. All five typologies have been and/ or currently can be found in Lincoln, Nebraska and Lancaster County as a whole. The process of detecting and reporting LOCOs is time-consuming. Detection of a LOCO site must be done through scientific means (e.g. chemical analysis, core sampling, and computer modeling). This means many LOCOs can remain undetected until citizens or owners of property request Section 128(a) Assessments. Federal law goes further to define Superfund sites, which are uncontrolled or abandoned commercial/industrial/military facilities with hazardous waste. Only one site in Lancaster County has made the EPAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Superfund list, the National Priorities List (NPL). However, the aforementioned site has been decontaminated since being listed. One barrier to researching sites
in Lancaster County is the lack of information. The EPA website is not updated regularly due to the lack of appropriations funding. Another term for LOCOs is brownfields; for the purpose of interior dross, brownfields are defined as a former industrial or commercial site where future use is affected by real or perceived environmental contamination. THE EPA RECEIVED 0.2% OF THE TOTAL US FEDERAL BUDGETARY RESOURCES FOR FY 2018.

LANDSCAPES OF CONTAMINATION MAJOR TAKEAWAYS * There is not enough federal funding being provided for these issues. * Brownfield sites closer to major cities are being funded by the state and are being fixed at a faster rate then sites farther out of city limits. * Many sites have been fixed to date however, there are many sites that could potentially be contaminated in the future. That being mainly airports, mining sites, military operations buildings, manufacturing plants, chemical plants, etc. * With technology like bioremediation and phytoremediation , we as a society can be proactive when building future potentially hazardous contaminated sites.
