OYSTER BEDS + MARSH
- ---------------------------------- -
This buffer zone is meant to create a soft edge to the site. Oyster beds break the surf and purify water while the marshlands will provide and absorbant surface and allow for wildlife reintroduction.

more adaptable water inundation.
-ORCHARD ----------------------------------- The orchard zone takes advantage of the grand scale
of the compound. At about 50 acres the orchard would produce 4,200 tons of produce per year and provide a local source of apples, peaches, plums, pears and berries to users.
GREENHOUSES + _FISHERIES__________________ 3 greenhouses (2 new, and retrofitted factory) and 4 fisheries combine to produce about "13,000 tons of produce and reconnect users to their food sources. A variety of both fish and vegetables will be produced and distributed year round.
BICYCLE CIRCULATION________________________ Bicycle circulation through the site will connect the
existing fractured Brooklyn greenway in a direct path. -The paths will also take advantage of th -:':"""""":" 'citibike' program with several stations being placed within the site. The paths will seemlessly connect north-south and east-west through the site.
P EDESTRIAN CIRCULATION__________________
+ SERVICE CIRCULATION - ROADS ---------------------------------The Brooklyn Navy Yard is walled-off from the surrounding neighborhoods. Our proposal opens up new arteries through the site to reconnect neighborhoods that have been worlds apart for centuries. By restitching the fabric of this corner of Brooklyn we open new opportunities for growth while still keeping most of the site closed to vehicular traffic and production facilities closed off to pedestrian traffic.

New and optimized roads will cut through the site. With the barriers removed, drivers will be able to more directly access internal and and surroun i point of interest. The main thoroughfare of
� Washington Ave will provide access to service roaas and distribution and Market St which will be the main connection between residential and food retail aspects of the site.

li Exquisite Corpse: Chimera Critic: Ezio Blasetti Financial District, New York, NY The Heterotopic Gardens introduce an intervention into the city fabric that challenges the commonly acknowledged truths about urbanism. Ideas about flow, ownership and occupation are the most closely guarded and regulated within the urban context and therefore are the most ripe for confrontation. By imposing adverse conditions and forms on rigid expectations we hope to create a dialogue about an alternative to accepted norms of daily life and interconnectivity.

As with the mythical "chimera" the Heterotopic Gardens are made up of three distinct "beings" which are fused to act as one: The sidewalk level intervention draws in everyday pedestrians; the inter-structure form begins to blend ownership and usage between individuals; and the interior intervention begins to animate previously abandoned spaces in order to create new, organic inhabitations.
Critic: Dave Pigram I Kindergarten I Staten Island, NY The sloped landscape of the selected site is used to create a formally functional space which can also embody a new type of kindergarten pedagogy. The radiating classrooms are arranged into a network which becomes an interactive 'playground' for the children allows for room to expand their autonomy in each learning experience. The structural envelope also adds both to the physical linkage of the spaces within the structure and the interconnected nature of learning systems.

STUDENT HOUSING Pratt Institute I 3rd Year Studio
Critic: Michael Cranfill I Cooper Square, New York, NY
This dormitory explores the interaction between spatial volumes and communal living. The placement and size of each volume is based on a grid set both by the existing city fabric and the geometry of the site. The extrusion and placement of the housing modules is then controlled by programmatic relationships. The communal spaces are centered around the core, while the rooms are pushed to the periphery, where an interaction between the private and public world comes to the surface.

Critic: Winston Von Engel I Brownsville, Brooklyn, NY
Working with a local organization, The Brownsville Partnership, we developed a master plan for the improvement of the local community. As it stands Brownsville's main issues are crime and economic stagnation. As a remedy we propose activating new commercial corridors and residential developments along with a reinvigorated community center. Partners: Sarah Oeftering & Marisol Reed

The Millennium Earth Project Pilot I Saint-Raphael, Haiti
The Millennium Earth Project uses geographic data and geodesign to foster smarter sustainable development This Pilot Project uses Saint-Raphael, Haiti, as a template illustrating how aggregated data and intelligent design can lead to more effective proposals for future growth. The Haiti prototype was developed with input from a group of architects, planners, and GIS experts in the Haitian diaspora. My role on the project included the urban design, 3D modeling, visualization, and analysis.

Dream School Initiative I Ada ma, Ethiopia The proposed "Dream School" was developed to serve the community as a whole in order to have the greatest impact on lifelong learning. The campus combines childhood and adult educational services with community development programs and congregation spaces. This configuration was developed as a formal response to the programmatic prompt, developed alongside the organization's CEO.
