PUBLIC SPACE: LAYERED AND CONNECTED METRA
This project is redesigns two under utilitzed city blocks near the intersection of Grand and Milwaukee Ave. This dense neighborhood is re-imagined to create a dynamic public space centered around existing transit infrastructure. New public space is created through the connection of two existing datums, -25’-0” Subway and the +25’-0” Metra line. A large public plaza is constructed around the excavated and exposed subway line and alternatively the above grade Metra line featues an above grade plaza. All of these new spaces are infused with housing and retail, as well as uninterrupted public walkways. The project is invested in creating a new vertical articulation of space which encourages exploration and public traffic. The consquential layering of public and private space connects existing urban datums and develops the in-between space through programmed collision.
