CONCEPT STATEMENT

The Civic Arena, constructed in 1961, had been a great place for concerts or sports events and loved by Pittsburgh citizens. Regardless of their feelings, demolition began, although it is true that the construction of the Civic Arena had created segregation between the downtown area and the neigborhood area. We should not view the demolition as a negative thing, we should view it as a creative thing, as an egg hatches. We will redesign this site as a place that creates a new Pittsburgh by connecting the downtown area to the neigborhood area and by sloving current local issues.
