site The whole mountain of the park remains the original appearance. The site, as a transition area for going up and down, should have provided people to temporary rest. However, the place is desolate with abundant wild weeds, untrimmed small streams and even the stairs in disrepair for years, so it is not convenient for people’s River activities.

The park is open from 10:00am to 18:00pm per day with the rush hour usually from 13:00pm to 16:00pm. The flow of residents is the most on weekends, while the leas on Thursdays and Fridays. The site is located in the higher position of the park. Most of the residents who can reach the site aged from 16 to 45 years old with strong body are more males than females as climbing is a physical exertion.

Stepped planting
Five large regions are divided according to the density of topographic contour line. They are directly arranged into landscaped steps in line with the relatively dense contour lines between the five regions. Connected with stairs, it also gives people a visual experience of different heights.
Heliophytes are planted to the south while umbrosus to the north for the sunlight comes from the south. Besides, the viewing platform and other buildings are mainly facing south for sunlight receiving.
Tree
There are two centennial cypress trees with on-site protection. In addition, three small groups of trees in the site are growing well and remaining in place.
River
There are many small streams on the mountain, five of these flowing through the site. For the four larger streams, the relocation and proper expansion should be carried out. On the other side, the westernmost stream should be landfill for its small water flow and often cutting off.
The Benmore Garden which site is in are famed for redwood forests, so the redwood is extracted as the plane composition of central activity area.

The site lies in the park near the top of the mountain. When people climb to this position, they will have a rest and then go down. However, it is desolate only with plants here. So it is not good for people because it’s incomplete function which can not satisfy their break, also causes some visual fatigue by these plants all around. And the thing we should do is to active people by some interesting streamline.
Plan and Plants
It is divided into five areas by topographic contour lines. The leftmost one is served as a service area with parking lot and toilets as it is close to the road, while the rightmost becomes stepped planting area for displaying the common plants in the park intensively according to its terrain. The part near the planting area is the highest place in this site, which used as entrance. There you can have an overall understanding of this park. In addition, an increasing viewing platforms are set up with different altitude in the entrance area. Cafes provide people a rest and good view, also it is the entrance for the two-story landscape bridge. The largest, main area in the middle is the central recreational region which is partitioned into three different altitude places. These places are connected by architectures or some sinking spaces for catering, shopping, rest, sightseeing and other needs. The small area in the southmost is a climbing place for extreme sports enthusiasts.

Pomona Project Scenario This site, located in the Manchester city, is a typical urban land. Now it is almost abandoned place with various weeds and kinds of birds through the vicissitudes of history. We hope to reconstruct this area bringing vigor to these surrounding blocks, satisfying the needs of residents daily leisure and entertainment, as well as improving the transportation around.

Old City Center
Pomona Island Paking There are a few parking lots in Manchester, and even most of them are commercial ancillary land which needs to pay for parking. Therefore, most people park their cars on the roadside available, which is easy to cause urban traffic congestion. So the site provide a free underground parking lot for sharing the pressure of urban parking.
Traffic The site, located in the downtown with convenient transportation, is only 3-5 minutes' drive away from the city center. due to its location and heavy traffic congestion, the bridge should be constructed across the river, thus it not only ease part of traffic pressure, but also increase the flow and drive the vitality.

This site is the largest green land around with its surrounding place taking scattering street and community greening as the main way. Therefore, the site is positioned as a city park focusing on leisure and entertainment with the commitment to functions and greening.
The site lies in a place with developed traffic and dense traffic network. Moreover, the light rail is nearby, so the road traffic is generally crowded. There is a heavy traffic congestion in the rush hour, especially at 4:00pm.

Traffic The north of the site is mainly central business district and downtown, while the south is residential areas with a large flow nearby. The rush hour both in the morning or evening is facing traffic congestion for the reason that people only can choose a particular road crossing the river because of river liwell. As communications on the both side of the river, the site can be built a underground road and a bridge across the river to ease the traffic pressure to a certain degree making use of the advantages of itself spaces. Meanwhile, a parking lot should be constructed underground, thus some people can park their cars walking to the CBD for its nearest to the downtown.
