The Sunset Park Gazette: Overcoming Overcrowded Schools was produced by my class and faculty of The New School’s MS Design and Urban Ecologies Program as part of an urban research and design project which spanned over the course of four months.The research shown throughout the publication incorporated various research methods including interviewing Sunset Park organization leaders and residents, attending community meetings and protests, participatory mapping exercises, reading secondary sources and close analysis of data sets and census records. My group investigated the history and demographic breakdown of Sunset Park, followed by current population trends in the neighborhood; housing conditions, shifting industries and occupations in Sunset Park followed by an analysis of overcrowding in Sunset Park public elementary schools. Our gazette concluded with four design proposals which were produced acknowledging local knowledge and resources with the aim of sharing actionable strategies, projects, and policies that could help to alleviate some of the pressures faced by residents of Sunset Park.

Sunset Park contains two Banking Development Districts (BDD) that are designed to encourage the establishment of bank branches; many of these are ethnic banks. Ethnic banks have become increasingly prevalent in Sunset Park and play a central role in the financing of small businesses and homeownership among immigrant communities. They are active in Sunset Park’s building boom through the financing of commercial and residential development and as property owners and investors.

STRATEGY 2
The strategy I personally worked on with my peers was designing ‘The Castle: center for creativity’ a non-profit art center, located in the heart of Sunset Park. This art center will Sunset Park public school art teachers with an offsite art classroom during the weekdays, and act as a welcoming community center for neighborhood dwellers after school hours and during the weekends.It is our hope that the “The Castle” will alleviate some of the most pressing issues facing the Sunset Park community. These issues include overcrowding in schools and the cutbacks to art and enrichment programs due to a shortage of space in schools; lack of affordable child care services in the neighborhood and the need for a central space where the community can gather, have fun and get to know one another better.

project 02
At Isbah Hassan and Associates, I worked as an architect on a theme park project for Bahria Town, Karachi. I was responsible for designing a zone of the park, which included master planning of the zone, designing the street furniture of the zone, the main street of the park and working on the finishes of two facilities in the park. The client was interested in creating the first state of the art theme park in Pakistan. The references given to our team for inspiration included pictures from disney theme parks. Kohkaff zone, was a theme based upon a local children story that decribes ‘kohkaff’ as a magical mountain where fairies and genies live. My design process started by understanding the geography of the site and the placement of the various rides in the zone. while designing I took inspiration from local elements in our architecture to make the theme relatable, while also keeping the fantasy element alive. This project is still under construction and will be hopefully completed by end of this year.

The brooklyn-queens waterfront is home to some of the last working industrial waterfronts in New York City. The histories of the different neighborhoods that line the waterfront are rich and varied, all involving the hardwork of immigrants and communities of color. One development that is quickly gaining steam and taking shape is the Brooklyn-Queens connector, BQX, a privately funded and publicized development to take place from Sunset Park to Astoria. For my spring 2017 studio project I conducted a research on transit oriented development and the BQX as a cause for gentrification in working class neighborhoods. The research was synthsized in the form of a pamphlet intended for community groups to create awareness. The research was also used by students from Hunter College to make a documentary on the project. We were also contacted by community groups like UPROSE and the Indypendant newspaper to share our work with them. find the complete brochure at: https://issuu.com/mahaaslam/docs/final_final
The first part of this brochure was designed to explain to people what the BQX project was and what was the timeline of the project, along with actors that were involved. The Friends of the BQX have been promoting the project through conducting sessions with different neighborhoods. The promotional videos highlights the benefits of this project including reducing work commutes and connecting people with greater economic oppurtunity. The Friends of the BQX have also circulated these fantasized images of the high tech steet car on the streets of the various neighborhoods along its route. The branding and promotion places an emphasis on the creation of beneficial economic oppurutnities for the residents of these neighborhoods - a topic discussed later in this handout. The community visioning sessions put on by NYC Economic Development Corporation have been in progress since Feburary 2016. The Mayor announced his support for this project in his State of the City speech in 2016 as well. Since then the project has gained momentum and has received alot of public attention due to its ambitious claims and proposed financing model. If the project moves forward as planned, the street car will be operating by 2024 for the public and will be serving an estimated 50,000 riders on weekdays. The seemingly small ridership and the tax increment based financing have placed big questions marks on the feasibility of the project.

bqx | the $2.5 billion business genius FINANCING STRUCTURES through development
The BQX financing model is based on the premise of growth and development around the project. This development oriented scheme seeks to create an influx of infrastructure which can then raise the property values of residential and commercials spaces along the waterfront. This model of value capture is at the heart of the BQX and its ability to succeed. This means that the BQX can only sustain itself financially if the property values rise significantly and cover the costs put up by the Friends of the BQX. The speculation and assumption of property value rise exposes a large conflict in this scheme. The richer areas will not have as much potential for real estate development to be exploited as the lower density, lower income areas will. This shows that the burden of the BQX construction and maintenance will be mostly put on the areas in most need of resources and will result in further repercussions such as displacement, rent increase and gentrification. The graphic on the left and the one below aim to represent this idea that the development bridge burdens the foundations of Sunset Park and Astoria far more than in Brooklyn Heights and Williamsburg and thus will face more breaks in the community cultures. The data used to create these graphics and represent the neighborhoods is average median rents from 2016. However it is important to understand that no one piece of data can be precise enough to represent the current development index. Median rents can only be used as a rough measuring tool that represents the development or gentrification of the neighborhood. A rise in rents will be the most immediate effect of the the BQX development if it were to be passed by City Council.
A Tax Increment Financing district is created by using the proposed project’s potential growth in multiplication with the sites that will benefit from that development. The city creates a TIF council that includes experts and officials to run the TIF structures. Firstly, the total value of tax property of the demarcated district is calculated .Then the projections are estimated keeping in mind the market trends and the potential growth of the proposed TIF project. This line determines all the taxation that can be collected above the base line. After the development is done the property values of the area rises. The property taxes also increase which go back to pay the investors till the debt is paid back after which the whole tax starts going to the city. The BQX is expected
to follow a similar financing model, more specifically the revenue bond system. The city is not directly liable to pay back the investors if the project fails to pay back the debt at any point in the time frame of the project. However because of political influences and also because of city’s credibility for the future projects the city sometime holds a few back up budget cuts to allow for the investors to be paid back. The finance model of TIF therefore heavily relies on its growth potentials and also on its development jumps. The whole system gets very complicated as shown below when the rating companies, bond insurances, property holders, incentives, bond default shares all tie into one huge real estate monopoly.
The false narrative being given about the BQX being the needed transportation of the waterfront is wrong because most people are not travelling north and south along the waterfront, and instead are doing east and west travel. Using Census data from 2010, the analysis below shows which boroughs the workers come from in order to reach the waterfront. It is shown that the vast majority of people on the Brooklyn waterfront come from elsewhere in Brooklyn, while the same is true for the Queens waterfront. The two graphics show the different amounts of people by percentage that are going to each of the two boroughs’ waterfronts. See below for further details. Greenpoint

The brochure we designed for this project was disseminated among community groups who found the information regarding the finance structure really helpful. We were called to present our work to the community with UPROSE and other community activists. We were also fortunate enought to collabrate with Hunter College students who were producing a mini documentary on the project.

A streetcar named Development
The Brooklyn-Queens Waterfront is home to some of the last working industrial waterfronts in New York City. The histories of the different neighborhoods that line the waterfront are rich and varied, all involving the hard work of immigrants and communities of color. One development that is quickly gaining steam and taking shape is the Brooklyn-Queens Connector (BQX), a privately funded and publicized development to take place from Sunset Park to Astoria. This kind of development will be detrimental to the working and middle class living in close proximity to the proposed line. Take a look inside to see exactly why the BQX is a bad idea for the development of NYC.
