ZKHUH

UPTOWN, PITTSBURGH

Uptown is located in a strategic location in Pittsburgh because of its strong connectivity and proximity to Downtown and Oakland. Uptown is also near some of the business and employment engines of the city such as UPMC Mercy, Duquesne University, and Carlow University. This gives the Uptown community great potential to be reactivated and revitalized by young professionals who want to live near their work and invest in affordable housing options.

IMPROVING QUALITY OF LIFE Unfortunately, Uptown has been facing a slow decline during which time people have left the area, real estate prices have fallen, businesses have closed, and unemployment has risen.

Uptown is located next to Downtown, making it a potentially desirable location for commuters into Downtown to reside. The poor condition of properties, low property values, and high level of vacancy attribute to the low morale and poor image of the neighborhood. The redevelopment and maintainence of many of the current buildings and vacant side lots within Uptown will lead to a surge in occupied buildings. A higher level of occupancy will led to a boasted neighborhood morale and increase property value within Uptown.

The majority of people living in Uptown make less than $10,000 per year, much less than the average for all of Pittsburgh. By splitting our property into two units, the price per renter will diminish, reducing the investment that each occupant must put into the cost of home. A focus on affordable housing is crucial to reinvigorating the residential areas and achieving a greater level of occupancy.

Uptown Pittsburgh

The majority of the residents in Uptown are employed within educational and social services, wholesale and retail services, Âż QDQFLDO DQG LQVXUDQFH VHUYLFHV WKH manufacturing sector, and other atypical job settings. Uptown offers little in the way of employment opportunities for these job sectors. Therefore, one can assume that the majority of Uptownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s residents must commute outside of the neighborhood to go to work. Uptown is blessed with several bus lines that enable residents to easily rely on public transportation to commute to work. Residents working in Downtown have a short six minute bus ride to commute to work everyday. This is the most desirable factor for attracting working residents to live in Uptown. Therefore, our targeted demographic for WKH YDFDQF\ LQÂż OO ORW W\SRORJ\ LV \RXQJ professionals.

Pittsburghers utilize public transportation more than many U.S. cities with comparable populations. )RUW\ ¿ YH WR ¿ IW\ SHUFHQW RI GRZQWRZQ commuters get to work using public transportation. Nine bus lines run through Uptown everyday, and at peak commuting hours, residents of Uptown can catch a bus along Fifth Avenue every minute to commute to Downtown. The bus ride between Uptown and Downtown is only a six minute trip. In addition to Downtown, public transportation creates strong, reliable connections from Uptown to other neighborhoods surrounding Downtown, particularly Oakland, Squrriel Hill, Shadyside, and East Liberty. Due to Uptown’s central location and its strong public transit system, Uptown has the potential to be a prime location for residential ownership of rent of affordable units, particularly for young professionals.

Companies would be more inclined to develop in the area, attacting young professionals to work there, increasing property value and neighborhood identity. Fifth Avenue and Forbes Avenue are strong axes within the city of Pittsburgh, connecting a series of neighborhoods to Downtown. Uptown has a central location along these axes and is the closest neighborhood to Downtown. Our site sits right along Forbes Avenue through which several bus lines pass along everyday.

We suggest to use Forbes Avenue for fast deliveries and negotiate a deal with the neighborhood to use the community garden for access during construction, and to restore the garden at the projectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s completion. Storage on site is limited and few materials can be stored there at any given time. This will require additional careful planning regarding when materials are brought to site. Another empty lot in Uptown can be used as a provisional storage location. Ideally a shed would be built on part of the community garden because of its proximity to the site reducing handling costs from the storage location to the site. Utilities: The Water and Sewage Authority in Pittsburgh requires new constructions to separate their stormwater and sewage pipes to the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main line. This will raise plumbing costs, but is a sustainable environmental need. Neighbors: Noise control measures will need to be implemented to reduce disturbance to neighbors and other community residents. Waste Disposal: Waste will need to be quickly hauled outside the site because of limited space and not to bother any neighbors.

/RFDWLRQ Labor Rates are comparable to the national average according to RSMeans Assembly Data. Using an open shop labor type will be less expensive than using a standard union labor force. We recommend this approach with the condition that there be a strong performance bond. Material Availability should not pose any complications or problems. The materials used are common in construction and do not need to be customized. Political Stability: No problems related to this. Economic Stability: Pittsburghâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy is more stable to comparable Rustbelt ities.

Site Condition The project site 2026 Forbes Ave presents four distinct conditions that would effect the construction process on the site. While there are solutions to these conditions, it would either lead to greater construction cost, or longer construction time.

Condition 1: Construction Noise and Safety

Site Elements

Condition: Adjacent buildings are residences and at least one of them are occupied, leading to construction noise concerns. There is very little maneuvering space on site and the neighboring buildings are within immediate proximity to the new construction. Solution: Limit the construction activity to weekdays and daytime and implement noise control measures to reduce construction noise. All construction personnel and everyone entering the construction site must be fully aware of the safety consideration. Precautions must be taken not to damage neighboring buildings and structures, including construction of scaffolding to protect it. Affects: Construction Time and Cost

Though the roof is not visible from the street and the resident will not think about it on a regular basis, it is extremely important when it comes to keeping the home at a comfortable temperature and the utility bills low. As heat naturally rises, all the heat generated throughout the home will rise as well. This means that once the heat reaches the roof in the winter, where the roof is directly exposed to the frigid temperatures of Pittsburgh winters, it has the potential to transfer all of that heat to the outside. To prevent this loss of heat, the roof must be insulated very well to an R value of 24. The roof is 12 inches thick, consisting of a thick SIP panel, gypsum interior Âż QLVK DQG H[WHULRU DVSKDOW VKLQJOHV

Secondly, they must seal the cold out as thoroughly as possible during the winter.

The houses in Uptown, whether detached or row houses, are almost all a variation on one typical type. The basic portion of each house is a cuboid made up of two stories. There is then a third story WKDW LV HLWKHU D IXOO VWRU\ ZLWK D ÀDW URRI D SHDNHG roof, likely with dormer windows; or a mansard roof with dormer windows. For houses sited on a slope, the entrances are above street level, requiring a stoop. Stoops are either perpendicular to the home and street, or have a small porch with steps leading off parallel to the street. Details (not depicted) that vary are lintels and cornices.

We studied the buildings along Forbes Avenue between Seneca Street and Jumoville Street that have mansard roofs. We decided to study this building typology because it is repeated throughout the neighborhood creating a sense of continuity in the urban fabric and cohesiveness between individual buildings. All the buildings with a mansard roof are three levels, have street parking are 24 feet wide, and have a small private garden. :H DUH UHODWLQJ WKLV LQIRUPDWLRQ EDFN WR RXU VLWH EHFDXVH RXU LQWHUYHQWLRQ ZLOO GLUHFWO\ UHODWH WR LWV FRQWH[W DQG HQVXUH WKH EXLOGLQJ 多WV LQ ZLWK LWV surroundings smoothly.

$SSOLFDELOLW\ WR $FWLRQ 8SWRZQ This precedent was useful to Uptown because the project creates a continuous facade treatment, which is similar to the one on Forbes Avenue on Uptown. The project uses a sensible material palate and standard dimensions elements that are easy to install and replicate. The use of cantilevered terraces celebrates indoor outdoor relationships and allows residents on the upper levels to have outdoors space.

This project uses a inclined roof to take advantage of the buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s southern exposure and effectively reducing the need for mechanical systems because of passive solar gains. A small terrace is inserted into the inclined roof porting that allows for a JUDWHU Ă&#x20AC;RRU SODWH RQ WKH WKLUG Ă&#x20AC;RRU ZKHUH SDUWV RI WKH URRI FDQ be very near the occupants there.

ENTATION

IMPLEMENTATION METHODOLOGY +RZ WR XVH WKH ,PSOHPHQWDWLRQ 'RFXPHQWV The Implementation (IMP) series of documents are meant to serve as a guide and reference point for all parties involved in the project. These documents delineate the logistics, cost estimates based on construction building elements, and a critical path based on the main activities in the project. These documents can be used by the project owner to understand the project more in depth, have an expectation of the projectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cost, and know where in the process the project should be at any given time. It is expected that the contract creates a more detailed cost estimate based on a quantity survey analysis of the project, and uses the cost estimates provided in the IMP section as a gage to compare the values.

Material costs change quickly based on the overall health of the world economy and the price of raw commodties. This can lead to unforeseen higher costs in the project, even though we can introduced contingency percent age at different stages of the project, these additional funds might prove not to be enough. ,QFOHPHQW ZHDWKHU FDQ FDXVH VLJQLÂżFDQW SURMHFW GHOD\V DQG H[WHQVLRQV LQ WKH GXUDWLRQV RI DFWLYLWLHV

&RQWULEXWLQJ )DFWRUV Roof Type: the roof of our building is complex structurally because of its slope and because of the skylights in bedded inside it.

Because of these reasons

&RQWULEXWLQJ )DFWRUV Partition density was kept to a minimum to reduce to construction costs associated and to create a feeling of large and open spaces for the residents. Many of the structural and construction materials are exposed reducing the need for additional decor and effectively reducing the interiors construction cost. Floor to ceiling heights were designed in accordance to standard material dimensions to eliminate the need for customization and therefore increase the cost. The staircase is the most expensive component in the interior construction. We used a simple free standing stair to minimize the cost of this element, partially in expense of its aesthetics. We used the same tiles for the bathrooms and kitchen to minimize waste and to be able to reuse smaller pieces in different locations. Due to these reasons we LQFUHDVHG WKH HOHPHQW FRVW ZH JRW IURP 560HDQV E\ to account for the contributing cost factors.
