For example, as the roof glows blue, one would know the MetroMover is coming. As the blue light intensifies, it means the mover is approaching.

Conceptual Sketches The spaces within integrate various systems:

Public vs. Private Realm Movement around and through the space must lend itself to the public nature of the overall plan. The building weaves itself into the public realm by creating an open entry that acts as a public street, while program on the first two levels is dedicated to public uses such as a bike share, winter garden, and event space. The transition of program allows the public space of the site to connect with the private offices above.

Wall Systems The various wall systems respond to the needs of each facade on the building. System components were developed, implemented, and composed on each face of the building. No facade is the same, so when one approaches the building, they will never have the same experience.

Roof Study Model
Concept Model
Pavilion Roof The process began by finding an architectural form that allowed for a seamless transition between the piazza and the proposed program. To accomplish this goal, a roof form that contrasts to the surrounding context was developed. The study model was used to observe how the roof would be built to allow for the piazza to exist, while allowing for light to penetrate throughout the site. The roof and its structure allow for a permeable exterior that can be entered from any angle. There are designated entries, which are expressed when the roof folds up, like the opening of a blanket. 17

Pile Formation The process began with observing the traits of bulk piles. Sand was used to simulate how the piles grow in various ways; how they grow vertically, horizontally, and how two piles merge together. The web then acts as a frame of reference to show the process of how the piles form.
Pile Movement The project uses the movement of the piles from the ship to truck as the main performance that activates the site. The ship unloads the material into large piles, then once on site, material slingers throw the material into smaller piles that can be easily managed.

Inside the web Once inside the web, people can see the interworkings of the systems on the site; they see the trucks and machines that move the piles, the trains that come move the people, and
Top of the structure On top of the web is where people can safely observe the interworkings of the site. The web allows them to view these bulk piles from a unique perspective. It undulates through vertical space, responding to the pile size, and leaves no two views to be identical.
Safety Zones To protect the recreational boaters and kayakers, the web acts as a safety zone, creating pockets where they can escape the path of the freighter. When the ship nears the site, the web glows red to warn the boats of danger.

Zoning + Parcelization The site is zoned according to the proposed distribution, so the program becomes distributed evenly throughout the site. Parcels are also developed to limit big development, and to bring in many stakeholders to the site. This way, one entity can not take over control of the 90 acre site. What then becomes, is a collaging of buildings and parcels into one, cohesive community, that can only be built over time with all stake holders working together. These compromises and negotiations are what gives the neighborhood its identity.

Phase One Phase 1 begins with developing Phase One
50-60% of the parcels to balance the development on the 88 acre site.
Phase Two Phase 2 sees the site develop 85%-95% Phase Two
of parcels so that the entire site is almost completely built.
Phase Three Phase 3 begins once the site is filled, and allows for negotiations between parcel owners to occur in order to create the unique urban spaces that can only Phase Three
occur in a stadium neighborhood.

28
Stadium as a Public Amenity The team and the game represent the city, and its values. The stadium should not be an enclave that restricts its connection with the neighborhood it resides in. Opening up the stadium, so that the space outside of the structure can see in, allows for the community to use the game as a shared amenity, much like a public park or lakefront access. It encourages development that helps to grow the neighborhood (see Wrigley Field and Wrigleyville on the north side of Chicago).
29
Building Typologies The buildings that surround the stadium begin to take on a form that can only be established because of its relationship with the game. If the stadium allows for views in, it allows for surrounding site owners to take advantage of their unique place. Through negotiations, the buildings are able to take on a character that can only be developed because of the stadium. This ingrains the stadium into the community, so that as the neighborhood evolves, so does the stadium.
“Leaning Sock� Overlooking Right Field
Program and Stakeholders The formula that was developed to distribute the program throughout the neighborhood allows for an overlapping of uses. By requiring multiple programs to occur in the volume of each parcel, negotiations will take place between many different stakeholders, such as retail and residential groups, parking companies, and the baseball team. No two negotiations will be alike, further defining the unique character of the urban place.
