AN INTRODUCTION The impetus for this project stems from an issues of Practice class offerred in the School of Architecture at Carnegie Mellon University. The neighborhood of study is dervied from a combined focus on Lawrenceville in both Issues of Practice and the Urban Lab Studio. The diagram below describes the structure of the project and the key players:

Carnegie Mellon University

SO, WHAT IS THIS ALL ABOUT?

School of Architecture

Lawrenceville is an aspiring and uniquely diverse community of Pittsburgh that has a rich character and history. The health and revitalization of this once thriving community is important, not only to its residents, but also to the Greater Pittsburgh area because of its potential for commerce and wealth of historic residences. The vision presented in this document serves to reaffirm the commitment of organizations and individuals to help reenergize the residential neighborhoods and preserve their unique character.

5th year

Fall Semester

This study, which serves as a facet of the Pittsburgh Program for the Adaptive Transformation of Community Housing [P_PATCH], aims to re-envision the role of the residential fabric by defining strategies for re-purposing and maintenance of unique housing typologies for future sustainability.

Urban Lab 48-500

Issues of Practice 48-550 .

LAWRENCEVILLE

The Applied Research Component of study represented by the Pittsburgh Program for the Adaptive Transformation of Community Housing (P_PATCH) will focus on tangible implementation strategies through the development of comprehensive political, financial, legal, and prescriptive implementation strategies. Executed as an iterative investigation, empirical assumptions will be tested and refined in the context of physical, economic, legal and social conditions. The project will be biased toward identification of universal/prescriptive standards. Appropriate/affordable strategies for enclosure system modification, mechanical system calibration, water harvesting/management and site utilization strategies will be investigated as a mechanism to increase energy efficiency and reduce the baseline costs of homeownership for families demonstrating subsistence at forty, sixty, and eighty percent median income thresholds. Solutions will focus on retaining the residents embedded in these communities and will leverage the success of redevelopment in proximate communities/neighborhoods.

P_PATCH Project

P_PATCH Project Statement, John Folan

Residents

Students

Through sensitive observations and analytical mapping, numerous multiple housing typologies are identified as a means for characterizing the fabric of residential units. Ultimately, a strategy is proposed for application to many houses in Lawrenceville that will increase the sustainability of the individual residences, introduce reuse for vacant and blighted sites, and support the residentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s desire to maintain community authenticity. As identified by the Lawrenceville Corporation, the goals of the community include the retention of the unique residential fabric through community diversity and class heritage. The project also remains sensitive to the residentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; desire to build upon their architectural assets by supporting high quality design that will help to inspire and engage visionary planning.

WHAT HOUSES ARE BEING STUDIED?

Common Housing Typologies Central Lawrenceville Row Houses

A considerate study of trends, population, vacancies, and potential for sustainable development, yielded a strong understanding of the dynamic forces which shape Lower, Central, and Upper Lawrenceville. After sensitive consideration of this information, Central Lawrenceville was identified as the primary focus of this study. There, numerous unique housing typologies were identified, characterized, and given a series of attribute qualifiers in an attempt to catalogue each housing type and its variation. Through a series of qualitative and quantitative attributes, each house can be assigned a unique “barcode” comprised of the set of qualifiers that relate to that specific house. This process produced a specific typology that presented itself as the most adaptable, common, and appeared to have the most potential for modification. Typology : Brick, two story, three bay row house with gabled roof. This housing type was first developed in the 19th century as boarding homes for the industrial workers of Lawrenceville.

The rowhouse comprises the majority of the houses in Lawrenceville . These houses, built in the early 20th century for local industrial workers, tend to be modestly sized under 1,500 sq. ft. These houses are further characterized by their brick facades, narrow street profile and lack of yard or driveway. Large Historic Houses Many of these houses date to the early 1900’s and are considerably larger than the ubiquitous row house. These houses can range between 2,000 and 3,000 sq. ft. and are attracting homebuyers to the region because of their charm and architectural style. Alley Housing

Variations: Back extension with half-pitched shed roof Third floor indicated by singular dormer on front façade Additional dormer in back Combined with mirrored volume and converted into duplex

These small and densely packed houses are some of the most modest housing still existant in Pittsburgh. No larger than 1,000 sq. ft., these residences are often seen in poor condition and provide a poor quality of life because of the lack of space and yards. Many have been demolished, leaving sporadic vacant lots throughout these blocks.

Assets: This typology is congruent with very common housing dimensions of many residences throughout Lawrenceville. The house is also found throughout the Lawrenceville neighborhoods.

Upper Floor Apartments

There are 134 instances of this typology in Central Lawrenceville. The house consists, on average, of 1,728 sq. ft. of inhabitable, conditioned space.

Along with the revitalization of many commercial corridors, the upper floor apartments above many of these shops and restaurants have gained new life and appeal. Much effort has been put into converting these commericial or unused spaces into usable apartments and condos, yielding strong interest and high property values.

The housing type is very adaptable; many iterations of the house found in Central Lawrenceville contain a replaceable addition with half-pitched shed roof that extends the existing volumetric grid of the house. The half-pitch allows for adjacent houses to create complete-pitched duplexes. This typology is found in additional neighborhoods of Pittsburgh, outside of Lawrenceville, extending the feasibility and effective dissemination of the proposed project. Identical typologies exist in Bluff, the Lower Hill District, Shadyside, and may be found in other neighborhoods as well.

The typology of focus : 151 44th Street, Lawrenceville

LOCATION OF STUDY The P_PATCH investigation in this report is focused on the historic community of Lawrenceville. Officially founded in the early 1800â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, Lawrenceville has been a hub of industry and commerce throughout out its history. After its relatively recent down turn because of economic decline, the community has begun to experience a regeneration of energy and residential appeal. Large number of people, especially younger demographics, are moving into the neighborhood, encouraging development and need for efficient retrofits.

After study of the exisitng housing stock and selection of a common house typology, two specific houses of that type were selected as Case Study houses for in-depth analysis and development of retrofit designs. These two houses are labeled while the other houses in Central Lawrenceville of the same typology are highlighted in black.

The same typology identified in Lawrenceville appears in other Pittsburgh neighborhoods, including Bluff. This repetition and permeation of this typology broadens and expands the effective scope of the proposed intervention. By developing this design proposal with a typology that appears consistently throughout the Pittsburgh region, the intervention is posed to be even more effective in itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to creat drastic changes in the Regional Community.

Vacancy

Vacant Lots around Lawrenceville

Department of City Planning, Pittsburgh Snap File and GIS http://www.pittsburghpa.gov based on Census 2000, Claritas 2009, Google Maps

Lower Lawrenceville has many more vacant lots or abandoned homes than the rest of the community. This is primarily due to the steep slopes in the southern area which are recorded as Landslide prone areas. These areas are being used recreationally for the most part, however the rest of the lots that are not in those landslide zones still amount to a greater frequency than either Upper or Central Lawrenceville. The least amount of vacancies is in Central Lawrenceville which could suggest that it is a more desirable community to live in. It does suggest that vacancies are dropping as population rises. Central Lawrenceville has the highest population, if population can begin to rise, vacancy will drop.

Average Incomes of Different Neighborhoods in Lawrenceville

50%

It seems that Lawrenceville has a fairly low median income in general. The area that would presumably have a higher median (Lower) actually has the lowest. There are pockets of lower income groups in the neighborhood, these are further from Butler Street and in general, closer to Polish Hill and the railroad. The most interesting numbers come just south of Lawrenceville, in the Strip District, where the median income nearly doubles that of any part of lawrenceville. The graphs show spattering of income groupings throughout the 3 areas, it is also possible that a select group of high income residents can drive up the median in any specific area, in this case Upper Lawrenceville may benefit from this sort of situation. The average income for these neighborhoods will increase as population rises and vacancies are filled by new residents. Increasing the property value of the neighborhood will also increase the average income.

The population of Pittsburgh as well as Lawrenceville has been on a steady decline for at least 70 years. While the trajectory has slowed its pace more recently it is still continuing downward. If anything is to be said about diversity, Lower Lawrenceville has the highest percentage of non-white residents at around 15%. The population decrease has dramatically slowed into the current years 1940 and is 1950 1960 poised to begin to make an 1970 increase.

WHAT DO THE EXISTING HOUSES LIKE?

Through the typological study, we examined every house in Central Lawrenceville North of Butler Street to categorically identify every unique type of house. The results from this analysis not only revealed the unique diversity of residences but also the density of each type and which typologies were most common. Through the classification we identified 8 major types of structures found in the residential fabric. We then explored each unique variation of those major types and have documented our findings here.

It quickly became evident that typology 1, the Brick, two story, three bay row house with gabled roof, was the most common and adaptable type of house in Central Lawrenceville. Thus, we chose this typology to explore further. We completed our typology study by selecting eight houses of the Typology 1 to observer and document for weaknesses and opportunities. These eight houses are outlined on PS4.00.

similar typology, to those studied in this document. Over 90 homes in the surrounding 16 blocks can benefit from the contained proposals for insulation and window replacement. Over a dozen of the aforementioned properties have sidelots, which could benefit from the other design proposals.

ZONING DEVIATIONS This section of analysis explores the conditions where the two case study houses are in violation of existing zoning and building codes. The importance of understanding these violations becomes evident when proposing changes or alterations to the existing structure because any affected violations will have to be corrected. The Zoning code states that no house should exceed “3 stories or 40 ft.” However, many buildings of the typology being studied are built above this threshold. Many of these houses are over 100 years old, indicating that they may have been “grandfathered” in to the existing code.

Older Building With Height Over Maximum Height Restrictions for This Zone

184 46th 133 45th

Minimum Interior Sideyard Setback: 10 ft Maximum Height: 40 ft / 3 stories (All setbacks are from the property line unless otherwise stated)

Information Regarding Variance Application Available: http://www.city.pittsburgh.pa.us/cp/html/land_use_ control_and_zoning.html

Each Variance Will take 2-3 Months to Process for Approval A pre-application submission form may be submitted to apply for a design review, to schedule a pre-development advisory meeting, or to initiate a community meeting with a neighborhood planner. This can aid in deciding the correct course of action for any renovation or addition.

Building Height In Excess of 40’

These deviations are typical of Lawrenceville typologies. Many, if not most, of the properties in Lawrenceville will be in violation of local zoning code. If there are no violations - approval can be granted at the zoning counter : 200 Ross Street, 3rd Floor, Pittsburgh, PA 15219 133 45th Street is Much Taller If an exception is listed in the code it may be approved as an Administrator’s Exception with Than the Property Directly appropriate documentation and proof.

Many of these zoning deviations cannot be feasibly rectified, even if any new construction is done to a home. The Pittsburgh Zoning Board of Adjustment requires that the owner either bring the home up to code, or seek to be granted a zoning variance / special exception to the Zoning Ordinance.

A common breach of zoning code is the breaching of the minimum setback requirements for the backs and sides of houses/yards. A majority of these zoning violation properties are “grandfathered” in. The issues are excusable due to this, however when seen side by side with newer buildings up to code, clear distinctions can be made as to the age of the building. Improper Setbacks are some of the most frequent violations.

The Minimum Space from the Back of the Structure to the Street is 15’ - This Being Violated by 10’

The Minimum Space from the 111 45th to the Back of the Structure Street is 15’ - This Being Violated by 10’

111 45th

Receiving a zoning variance or exception simply requires that the violation not be an egregious use of property and not be a detriment to any aspect of the neighborhood. The process of obtaining a variance takes between 2 and 3 months. After a variance is filed for, it takes a month for a hearing to be scheduled. After the hearing the Zoning Board of Adjustment has 45 days to make a decision on each case. In order to have a case heard an owner must sign up at the Department of City Planning Zoning Office. Signing up will allow the Zoning Board of Adjustment to verify the need of a hearing and identify which variance or appeal will be considered. To sign up requires 5 copies of a survey or plot plan, a list of adjacent property owners, and a fee for each variance.

Request Requirements: 5 copies of survey/plan List of adjacent property owners (provided by Allegheny County Property Assessment Office) Fee per variance Check or money order, payable to Treasurer, City of Pittsburgh

The list of adjacent property owners will be provided upon request by The Allegheny County Property Assessment Office:

542 Forbes Avenue (at Ross Street), Room 303, Pittsburgh, PA 15219

The fee is $25 plus: • $200 for a Residential Dimensional Variance • $250 for a Residential Special Exception

PLACES THIS HOUSE LOSES MOST OF IT’S HEAT, SLOWLY EMPTYING YOUR WALLET

The majority of the houses in the Lawrenceville area were built around the turn of the 20th century; historical maps even date some of the houses in our selected typology back as far as the 1860’s. In most of these cases, little has been done in terms of updating the building enclosure, and to this day the structures remain in their pristine historical drafty brick condition. But don’t blame the homes, or the masons that erected them, for at their time with seeming unlimited quantities of coal being mined daily to roar in the furnace, the prospect of a leaky roof or wall was non-existent. Times have changed, and the concept of unlimited energy has vanished; we now practice energy conservation. Thus, rather than erasing the past and manufacturing a new present, lets simply fix what we can to make our lives better in the easiest manner possible, and in the case of these houses, your own home, a simple seal will suffice. “Nay to the new condo, bring me the polyurethrane I say!”

COMBUSTION EXHAUST - HAZARDOUS

COAL DISAPPEARED AND TECHNOLOGY CHANGED THE FIREPLACE (paleolithic - present) Ever since we fell from the tree, or got kicked from the garden, and witnessed that quintessential lighting strike that sparked our pyromaniacal impulses that probably resulted in us burning half a continent, we have indeed domesticated this process and have managed to warm our toes in a relatively non destructive manner to this very day. The forestry industry has changed plenty since the days the entire northeast was wiped clean, and the cycling of planting and logging can virtually sustain us indefinitely. However the extra monetary cost and hassle in dealing with a heavy and space consuming material has slowly disinterested the general population, to the point were the distinguishable smell of burning wood that once permeated our cities during the winter months has given way to nothing. And the once communal hearth of warmness, has been replaced by a flat plane of electrically charged crystal molecules.

THE COAL FURNACE (1800s - 1940s)

STEAM AT 230 F

Heat from the combustion of fossilized remains converts water into steam that is then pumped through a series of copper that pipes, which themselves lead to the old heavy radiators that we commonly find in these Lawrenceville houses. This manner of heating homes was the widespread alternative to wood burning, and the general rule in areas such as Pittsburgh, were coal was being literally dug up from the house’s basement. By the beginning of the postwar construction boom, coal boilers were considered obsolete at a national level. Though in Pittsburgh there are accounts of their continued use up until the 50’s. It is also important to note that where this house in a different city or state in the same historical context, the furnace would have been geared towards the consumption of oil or kerosene. As those were the prevalent consumable resources in the rest of America.

THE NATURAL GAS BOILER (1940’s - present)

ELECTRIC BOILER (1970’s - present)

WATER AT 176 F

Via the thermoelectric effect, electric voltage is directly converted into a raise in temperature. With the rise of the great national power grid, and the seeming replacement of all that is mechanical with the digital, it was destined that human adaptation would conjure some update, and here it is ; complete abstraction from the physical reactions that in the past maintained room temperature. If your conception of reality is the mere bubble of your enclosure, then yes it is a completely “clean” resource and process. However the source of that energy is far from “clean”, and it is only up to us as the consumer market and citizens of a state to vote and choose a future that actually embodies this “greenness” we all seem to be fond of.

MUNICIPAL WATER SUPPLY

The first transcontinental pipelines were constructed in the 20’s, yet its widespread adoption did not occur until the energy crisis of the 70’s. When national broadcast jingles rapped about the wonders of “Cooking with Gas” and the United States President urged the public to seal off their fireplaces. It is certain that those were sad times for the lumberjacks and children of America come Christmas time. Though humour aside the irony remains in substituting wood and oil for gas because of their “hazardous” combustion by products and irresponsible acquisition practices, yet in retrospect gas is presently acquired in equally irresponsible manners, while the forestry industry has actually redeemed and engaged in a purely regenerative system.

Luckily there are efficient strategies available to save money and cool your interior without the need of an air conditioner. Take into account that the predominant summer breezes blow in the same axial direction as the vast majority of the typology homes. Thus opening all apertures in this orientation will create a strong draft to vent all accumulated heat in the interior.

On those long rainy weeks, were the water is pouring down the sidewalks and any flat land has been transformed into a marsh, think for a second where all the water is going. As Lawrenceville is located on the shore of the Allegheny river, whenever there are heavy rains in the upstream region the volume of the river increases. This raise in the riverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s depth overruns the municipal sewer lines, which in the case of a storm are already full. In the worst scenario the sewers start overflowing unto the streets themselves, thus slowly flooding the city as a whole. As has been the case countless times and the motive for major renovations to the municipal sewer infrastructure. Such is the graveness of the situation that the City of Pittsburgh and the Environmental Protection Agency, offer in conjunction a series of grants for the design and construction of exemplary storm water management systems on homes such as yours.

The brick served not only as a proportional building block but as a modular dimension that governed space layout and arrangement of elements. The very bricks of your house help tell the story of how your house was built, why the windows are the size that they are, and how the hosue is delineated on the inside. Because of this descriptive nature, the brick and its proportions were analyzed and applied to the facade elements to understand an underlying language and system that governed the design and construction of your row house.

That is you; the home owner; the one with the monetary means and disposition to undergo a lengthy project that involves our participation. A project that will ultimately make your house a better place to live and work. It is also important to Remember that in this industry you are the customer, and the customer is always right. Therefore the series of contracts that will enable you to undergo this revamp are written in your favor and entitle you as the sovereign decision maker.

The architect designs, is responsible to finish all of the following; THE DRAWINGS - These are the graphic representations necessary to properly execute the project. they are included in the adaptive transformation sections. THE SPECIFICATIONS - the legalities involved that carefully set forth the required materials, services, and quality of the work performed in your home. all through INSTRUMENTS OF SERVICE - this covers the book you are currently holding, and all the unseen work it took to finish.

CONTRACTUAL NEGOTIATIONS: THE PLAYERS AND THE GAME

This is the project and is borne from the collaboration of all three main members, The total construction or work involved in this case:

THE SEAL, THE SWALE, THE POD

The constructor essentially builds, and is responsible for the work, the services and construction required to complete the renovation. Includes all of the labor, materials and such. The contractor will also pay for the labor materials and all related expenses such as utilities and transportation needed for the proper execution of the work. The contractor must perform the work in accordance to this document, and cannot make changes to the outlined method without proper approval from you, and us in some minor cases that are previously laid out. He may appoint a representative to deal with you and us the architects, and a superintendant for managing your house during construction and all the people involved. The contractor is always required to maintain order and discipline among these people.

HIERARCHY & DIALOGUE IN THE A201 CONTRACT

Since the variables and decisions involved in the idealization and then actual construction of a project are infinite, the industry has evolved into the present hierarchical system that relieves you of the hassle from managing the majority of the process. Envision this system as a network of people working for you, everything is catered to your input and feedback. These people are tailoring your home, your environment, your life, they are custom fitting your territory based on your imagination, and of course bank account, which is required for the future livelihood of the people involved in the project and the future of the trade. To participate in this system, and engage in the custom-tailoring, then you must play by the rules, and know how to play the players. As owner you have plenty of rights, and certain requirements to fulfill. For example you are generally required to provide some basic information about your house to the architect and contractor. These would be the legal and physical conditions of your home, the available utilities, and physical dimensions. As to the selected houses in our typology, we have eased the owner from these requirements and have collected and digested this information for one to make sense of it in the scope of a renovation project. This information in addition to your input will be the basis for the architect to carry on his functions which

are further discussed below. At any moment you are entitled to appoint somebody to act as your representative and carry on certain decisions for you. At any point of the project you, or your representative, must respond with “reasonable promptness” to the inquires of the contractor. And we advise you to do so, for his output depends on your input. Sometimes the contractor is actually trying to cut costs and efficiently rework things, other times he is actually trying to extort you, unfortunately this is a human condition and little have we done in remediating it. As you have initiated the process, you can end it, at any time. The reality is that you will have to pay all the fees involved so far, as people’s time was invested in your life. Luckily the world is not filled with whimsical millionaires, and this legal move is taken seriously, only coming into play when the once in a lifetime nightmarish scenario occurs in which nothing is going on according to your wants, which are distilled in the drawings. So in the case that you arrive home one day to check on the greenhouse transformation and were expecting the view of a beautiful wood frame gently emerging from your house, to find that the russian constructor misunderstood your arm gestures and images. Building what appears to be the initial scaffoldings for the Baikonur

PITTSBURGH PROGRAM FOR THE ADAPTIVE TRANSFORMATION OF COMMUNITY HOUSING CARNEGIE MELLON UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE 48_550

Cosmodrome growing from the top of the masonry structure (you really do not want a soviet space launch facility growing from your house). In this situation, or any like it, you can order the contractor to stop all activity and engage in a discussion to solve the matter. During negotiations with the contractor and the russian interpreter, you will hopefully arrive at a yea or nay moment before they start opening the fifth bottle of import vodka. After the “discussion” and the qualms of your liver, the contractor has ten days to act accordingly to his decision, whether it be clearing the site or continuing work. If the contractor fails to react beyond that legal time frame, you are entitled to charge the contractor for all the costs involved in remediating his failure. This move has its intricacies though, as it has to be run by the architect before hand, and his approval must be gained for you to claim these expenses from the contractor.

However in perspective this is not a common occurrence, and the proposals we have outlined for you are clearly noted and straightforward in order to facilitate the contractor’s task.

PROJECT NARRATIVE: AN INTRODUCTION

PMN1.00

INSULATION AND WINDOW REPLACEMENT The addition of fiberglass batt insulation to the existing exterior walls and attic rafters will help to drastically reduce the heat loss of the house during the winter months, which significantly attributes to the high heating bills that owners often find themselves paying. Insulation is applied at all areas in the house where an exchange occurs between a heated, conditioned space and a non-conditioned space, such of the outside or basement. Batt Insulation will be applied to the inside of all four exterior walls, the floor joists directly below the first floor, and in the attic trusses. Insulating a structural brick house is very challenging and often cumbersome. However, the strategy presented in this proposal calls for a 4â&#x20AC;? secondary stud-wall to be constructed in the interior perimeter of the entire house. This stud wall will serve as an armature with which fiberglass insulation can be easily hung and will also provide builders and easy means of updated and rewiring electrical and other services in the house. The single-paned , regional windows will also be replaced with energy-efficient, doublepane windows to further reduce the infiltration of cold air during the winter.

RAINWATER HARVESTING

PUT RAIN TO WORK FOR YOU

The rainwater system feeds both into the sewer and into the home. The filtered water that feeds into the home can be used with typical grey water usages (for toilet water, the water that circulates in a radiator, and for water to be used in landscaping). These uses will all be facilitated by additional filtration systems within the pods being proposed as part of the last and most site altering adaptive transformation. Running this water through the pods (as rainwater delineators) gives an additional meaning to this project: TO PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT TO MANAGE PREVIOUSLY UNUSED WATER EFFICIENTLY TO CREATE A MORE SUSTAINABLE AND THOUGHTFUL HOME

The rainwater harvesting system is capable of managing up to 500 gallons of water at any one time. On average the total rainfall for this lot amounts to 230 gallons a day. During storm situations, that amount could potentially double, leading to a near capacity event. In this case the water would be cycled into the existing sewer, but at a much slower pace than would normally occur, and at a smaller percentage. This benefits both the community and local ecosystems.

+ SWALE

Stormwater Runoff is a very serious issue in the Pittsburgh area. The existing sewer system is old, and manages both waste sewage and stormwater runoff. SWALE

SWALE

SEWER LINE

This sewer system has an emergency overflow which leads directly into the Allegheny River. During a storm surge the amount of rainwater can exceed the capacity of the sewer system.This causes the system to overflow into the river. Both waste and rainwater. By utilizing swales, the speed at which water moves from the ground into the sewer system is greatly reduced. This allows the current system to work without being overloaded during storms. WITHOUT STORMWATER MANAGEMENT, SEWAGE WILL CONTINUE TO FLOW INTO THE ALLEGHENY RIVER DURING STORM SURGES.

PROJECT NARRATIVE: AN INTRODUCTION

PMN1.00

ROOF GREENHOUSE PERSPECTIVE Although to manage stormwater is not the primary objective of this project, it is necessary to implement this as a means to demonstrate methods of stormwater management in order to obtain a grant from the USDHUD (U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development). The grant from the USDHUD would cover the costs of the entire project, making this an invaluable investment to pursue. With the grant, the total cost of the project would be $0 If this grant is obtained, the cost benefits from the rainwater collection system will begin to take affect. The green house will utilize two types of passive tempering in its air movement systems. This space is meant to allow the owner to have a unique space atop their home. This space could be utilized in a variety of ways. It could be used to grow plants, as a patio, as a lounge space, as an exercise room, as a study, as a library, as a space one could stretch out in and enjoy life. The simple rough carpentry finish formally addresses the status and conditions of the home both before and after renovation.

HEATING WITH A GREEN HOUSE

Green House Effect During the cold winter months the green house will work as a generator of heat for the entire house. In even a mildly sunny environment a green house will collect heat from the sun’s rays as the day goes on. The air in the green house will heat up, creating a mass of warmth capping the house. This won’t only heat the attic, but will also work to insulate the top of the building. Heat loss through the roof will be almost non existent, heat gain will occur. If this hot air were to be stored during the day, at night a simple fan could be utilized to circulate the warm air down into the building. In the morning, closing the door to the green house will begin the process of storing up heat once more.

COOLING WITH A GREEN HOUSE

Stack Effect Hot air rises. The stack effect utilizes this principle. With the windows open in the green house, a north - south wind will push straight through the space. As hot air rises it will be caught by the flow of the green house breeze. This will generate in imbalance in pressure from the lower floors to the attic. This pressure system will force hot air through the building. The hot air moving up and out, a cool breeze from the outside will pass through the windows of the lower floors. This breeze will cool the house and create a significantly more pleasurable atmosphere during late spring and summer months.

ADAPTIVE TRANSFORMATION: RENTAL POD

a retrofitted shipping container stacked vertically to make use of its inherent structural capabilities. Placed next to the existing house to in order to expand livable floor area, the pods also have an independent greywater re-use system. Providing an entry, bathroom and kitchen to the upper two floors of the house, the pods cater to growing families and rental users.

PITTSBURGH PROGRAM FOR THE ADAPTIVE TRANSFORMATION OF COMMUNITY HOUSING CARNEGIE MELLON UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE 48_550

An ADA ramp is integrated into the pod structure in order to allow access from the sidewalk to the first floor. This makes the pod a viable option for elderly assisted living in Lawrenceville. This option continues Lawrencevilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s front porch culture. The lowest level pod becomes a open space for outdoor living. This space is ADA accessible via a ramp from the existing kitchen. Renters or other occupants of the upper two floors access their units by an exterior stair.

The second stage is essentially the start of the third phase of construction. The second phase can be completed with the original configuration, but due to timing overlaps, the second stage will be implemented as soon as external construction on the roof patio/greenhouse is completed.

The third stage calls for much more square footage for the delivery of the shipping containers, and the need of an aparatus that is capable of moving the containers. The shipping containers can be stacked upon eachother in the yard while the crane is positioned. This will accomodate for the resting postition of the containers and their destination in conclusion of construction. As soon as the main structural workings of the pods are complete, the crane can be removed from the site.

The Urban Redevelopment Authority of Pittsburgh has a program to rehabilitate exposed party walls. This is a grant program and qualified homeowners may receive up to $10,000 to repair the exterior wall. In order to determine your eligibility for the program, we must verify the annual gross household income for the year 2009. The following documentation is required to process all applications for the Pittsburgh PartyWall

What To Bring Two (2) most recent pay stubs and/or copies of your Social Security and pension verification for all members of the household. A copy of your 2008 Federal Income Tax Return or 2008 Property Tax/Rent Rebate Form.

The US Department of Housing and Urban Development is soliciting applications for funding for eligible property owners to make energy and green retrofit investments in the property, to ensure the maintenance and preservation of the property, the continued operation and maintenance of energy efficiency technologies, and the timely expenditure of funds under the Assisted Housing Stability and Energy and Green Retrofit Program. Grant covers renovation in cases of Solar Retrofits of Public Housing, Weatherization and Energy Efficiency Housing Rehabilitation, Public Housing Upgrades and Improvements Physical and financial analyses of the properties will be conducted to determine the size of each grant and loan. Incentives will be made available to participating owners. The terms of the grants or loans will include continued affordability agreements. Grant and loan funds must be spent by the receiving property owner within two years.

What To Know The terms of the grants or loans will include continued affordability agreements Grant and loan funds must be spent by the receiving property owner within two years. Full detail of how to apply, and grant and loan terms, will be published.

This grant seeks to assist local stormwater managers to alleviate the significant expense of construction, operation and maintenance of a municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4). This covers the costs of stormwater programs, increased by regulatory requirements (stormwater Phase I or Phase II), flooding concerns, water quality issues (including total maximum daily loads, or TMDLs) may be subsidized through a stormwater utility or various other methods. Stormwater management can be costly, but it is a good investment. There are new stormwater management techniques, referred to as low impact development (LID), that infiltrate, evapotranspire and reuse stormwater, thereby, preventing polluted runoff from happening. This helps to reduce the high costs of cleaning up the water quality impairments from the polluted runoff. Additional benefits from these techniques include increased ground water recharge, flood control, and healthy aquatic ecosystems through maintenance of base flow for streams.â&#x20AC;?

What To Know The average quarterly fee for stormwater management in a single-family home is $11, though some communities charge as little as $2 or as much as $40 per quarter to a single family home.

These paths work to enable multiple types of home owners to participate in the implementation of the proposed adaptive transformation. Each path results in a different outcome both in physical form and in resultant affects on the financial and environmental aspects of the property.

It is important that the phases that are chosen to pursue are completed fully. Any of the phases only completed partially leaves a large gap in the design and can undermine the goals of each possible path. The suggested paths have been formulated in order to create the optimum results at construction completion.
