In the NYC Abroad Program our Design Studio was meshed with our Introduction to Real Estate Class, we essentially were asked to play the role of a developer and an architect. Complete with a real estate performa our designed Rooftop Farm Co-Op utilises the new proposed zoning plan and makes money while providing more affordable housing, a more sustainable food option, a functioning market, and a public green space for the people of NoHo.
Focusing on the theme of Climate Crisis our project’s executive summary has four key points:
Conversations about climate change and sustainability should preace every discussion about the built and soon to be built environment.
This project aims to connect the city back to the Earth and the cycle of life by providing a place of growth, greenery, and grub through roof level, farming superstructure
This project supports the community alternative zoning plan and maximizes as-of-right residential with an FAR of 5
This project implements visionary ideas of sustainable materials and methods through its increased use of mass timber and passive building strategies
