01 APPLETOPIA

REVITALIZING HUDSON VALLEY'S APPLE INDUSTRY Urban Design Studio II, Fall 2018 Site: Ulster County, NY Instructor: Lee Altman, Wendy Adringa, Jerome Haferd, Justin Moore, Michael Murphy, Christopher Kroner, David Smiley Collaborator: Dian Yu, Shuyuan Li, Yingzhe Zhang Apples form one of the most iconic industries of the Hudson Valley. However, apple orchards have experienced a drastic decrease of 26% in the past 20 years due to increasingly unaffordable operating costs, labor shortage, a lack of facilities, waste disposal, etc. For the remaining orchards in the valley, two existing models promise economic sustainability: “pickyour-own” farms and hard cider tours. Based on these trends, we propose to build upon the apple industry’s more public aspects, taking advantage of existing infrastructures. Our proposal consists of (a) a series of multi-functional “hubs”, constructing for making apple processing and added value products and providing professional training; (b) an expanded hard cider company allowing the apple picking participates the public in the cider making process; (c) a trail system tying together these two components plus apple follies celebrating the apple culture. By adapting to contemporary models that combine agricultural production with experiential participation and recreation, the Hudson Valley’s iconic apple industry can reinvent itself as an economically viable, environmentally sustainable, and socially engaging, while remaining an integral part of the valley’s identity.

HUB

LEVEL 2 Visitor Center + Exhibition + Education Center

LEVEL 1 Factory

Hub is a shared facility for local farmers. Farmers could use equipment to make apple products such as juice, sauce and sell them to local cideries and retails. It is a multi-functional. The essential functions are storage, processing, packaging, and distribution. As the center of this core trail, we propose new functions. First, a waste disposal infrastructure, which expands the life circle of apple products, and makes the whole industry sustainable. Waste will be transformed to compost and then be delivered to a compost site which is also located at our trail. 10

Second, an education center to address the labor shortage issue. Education center provides professional training for labors. Some of them will work at farms, others may work at cideries or just in the hub. When farms and cideries need more workers in busy seasons, they could send a request to the hub. Third, recreational space includes a tour path, an exhibition, and a small retail shop to make this hub public-facing. After visitors finish their tour, they will walk through this glass box which directly connects to our trail.


HUB

Outside the hub is a transfer station, where visitors could choose different modes of transportation.They could walk, bike or take golf car.

CIDER RENOVATION

The renovation for cider company aims at making hard cider industry more public-facing by introducing a glass shed to seasonably expand its space and also adding functional grids in its room. Potential activities in cider company include cider tour, tap room, make-your-own cider, exhibition and entertainment show.

02 NEW ENERGY LANDSCAPE

WHAT IF A NEW ENERGY LANDSCAPE CAN FORM SOCIO-ECOLOGICAL EXCHANGE SYSTEMS IN CAN THO? Urban Design Studio III, Spring 2019 Site: Tri An, Can Tho, Vietnam Instructor: Kate Orff, Dilip da Cunha, Geeta Mehta, Thaddeus Pawlowski, Julia Watson, Linh K. Pham Collaborator: Angela Crisostomo, Bohong Zhang, Wenjun Zhang The Mekong Delta is in crisis. As of today, there are 364 Hydropower Dams and 30 Coal Plants, existing and planned along the Mekong River and its tributaries. Vietnam’s energy landscape today is mostly supplied by Hydropower and Coal relying heavily on foreign investment and imports. Our project explores how Can Tho’s energy landscape can shift – from a dependence on hydropower dams and coal power – to localized, lowcarbon industries of waste-to-energy, phytoremediation, and water treatment; preserving the health and livelihood of local residents and leapfrogging decades of environmental degradation. Our project asks,"What if a new energy landscape can form socio-ecological exchange systems in Can Tho?" We propose a strategy for development that begins by improving existing sites of social and cultural exchange and integrating new technologies of energy, water, and waste management infrastructure to create new systems of social-and ecological exchange and industrial development. Three elements advance this new approach: (1) New Energy industries utilizing biomass and solar technology, (2) Living Machines that activate public space and provide water supply and treatment to neighborhoods and local industries; and (3) Phyto-Tech facilitate cleaning and prevention of pollutants in the soil, air, and waterbodies. Besides, there is an Energy Cooperative, that engages local residents and the public and private sectors in the development of new infrastructure and public places, helps solidate the whole new system of public exchange and neighborhood that inform the new energy landscape.

THE "DOOR" OF LA CUEVITA COMMUNITY GARDEN 12-MONTH PILOT Not only will the door assist in giving community garden a greater street presence and drawing in the community, but also provide every resident of East Harlem an opportunity to drop-off their organic waste within a 5-minute was of their residence. 26


03 WASTE TO SPACE

INTEGRATING WASTE SYSTEM AND PUBLIC SPACE Urban Design Studio, Summer 2018 Site: East Harlem, NYC Instructor: Kaja Kühl,Brian Baldor, Hayley Eber, Sagi Golan, Tricia Martin, Shachi Pandey, Austin Sakong Collaborator: Alexandra Burkhardt, Jinsook Lee

East Harlem generates over 10,000 tons of organic waste per year; however, as a borough, Manhattan does not offer curbside collection of organic waste. As a result, residents are limited to three drop-off sites for three hours a week to dispose of their organic waste. East Harlem has one of the highest concentrations of community gardens of any neighborhood in New York City. These gardens are a tremendous asset to the urban fabric of East Harlem; however, as they stand, many are fronted with chainlink fences and remain primarily inaccessible to the public. Our proposal is to utilize community gardens as a tool for organic waste collection in East Harlem. Each garden’s fence will be transformed into a 24/7 food scrap drop-off site through the use of “door.” However, because community gardens are only capable of composting 5% of East Harlem’s organic waste, the remaining 95% must be addressed at a community-scale. We propose to use the EL, one of East Harlem’s most unique, accessible and underutilized spaces, as the site for an integrated system that celebrates East Harlem’s identity by transforming it into an experimental, multi-programmatic space accessible to all residents of East Harlem. From 115th to 118th, the space under the El will be transformed into an experimental production line utilizing three blocks as a compost hub, urban gardening lab and community market with each block serving a particular role in the transformation of organic waste.

04 INTERRUPTED FLOW

FLOWS ACROSSING US-MEXICO BORDER

Urban Design Studio II, Fall 2018 Site: Coachella Valley, CA Instructor: Lee Altman, Wendy Adringa, Jerome Haferd, Justin Moore, Michael Murphy, Christopher Kroner, David Smiley Collaborator: Adi Laho, Bohong Zhang No matter what the physical barrier may be, scale or bounds, the polar shift in contrast is distinct in each of the communal sections of this Coachella – Mexicali region that we have defined and zoomed-in on. This definition helps to better understand this particular region of Southwestern United States in order to additionally understand the mechanism at large. We see the Salton Sea, California’s largest and ever-changing saline lake, and the ever thin politically charged border of United States and Mexico also as two physical features that are vastly different in nature; natural and man-made, flowing barriers that divide this site. We ask, if a thin border wall between nations and a dynamically shifting lake equally effect the barred off areas they touch adjacent to them, then is it possible that factors outside of these drastically different geographic features are strongly manipulating how this region and others like it are formed? In our research, a recurring theme we kept being routed back into was water. It is as abundantly clear in aerial views of the vast canal systems and lush agricultural fields as it drawing a section of the powerful Colorado River that so much of the region is dependent on as their prime resource. Infrastructure, production, partnerships or companies; they are all dependent on this element. Water is constantly flowing, as are many layers of systems in this region. These systems are all extremely connected with each other in very apparent ways and are super divisive resources that shape a community or help manifest disparity in another. Factors that indefinitely decide the health of a specific area and a plethora of other factors inside of that community. As much as this flow of resources strengthens a region, it also is a major factor in the inequality it creates through layers of unseen connection amid the directions a particular flow takes; who get what and how much…





05 LINKNYC SUTURE SPATIAL DATA ANALYSIS

GIS Lab, Fall 2018 Site: NYC Instructor: Leah Meisterlin, Grga Basic Collaborator: Haoting Pang, Huang Qiu

LinkNYC kiosk is part of an international organization which is established to provide free wi-fi to everybody in New York City. It was first raised in 2014 by the office of New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio , then it developed gradually. Until now, the LinkNYC kiosk has multiple functions except for the free wi-fi. There are free phone call which is what payphone mainly provided, emergency button, community service, map information service and so on. The company is dedicated to developing new and potential functions of these kiosks. They claimed that it will be the fastest and most widely spreading system all over the world. However, the distribution of these kiosks does not make it work efficiently. Our work is to find out the conflicts of the functions and distributions, and then propose new functions and potential sites to add more kiosks as a way of implementation.

This diagram shows the flow of our analysis. We use four criteria (street crime points, free Wi-Fi coverage area, population density, density of people below the poverty line) to find out the potential places to add new kiosks. Apart from existing functions of LinkNYC kiosks, we also analyze service area of healthcare&hospital, bus shelter and tourism grants and propose LinkNYC 2.0 to new places.

a suddenly heart arrest happens. It can give the patients electrical shock to evoke the heart beating rhythm.

According to the American Red cross statistics, “ Sudden cardiac arrest is among the leading causes of death in the United States. In fact, more than 350,000 people will suffer a cardiac arrest this year. Currently, the only way to restore a regular heart rhythm during cardiac arrest is to use an AED.” Of course, we can call 911 for help. The ambulance need 4-12 minutes for arriving based on different distance. However, the first 4 minute is the golden time for life saving. So the best way to help people who has the arrest is to use this equipment immediately.

LINKNYC 2.0 -- DRINKING FOUNTAIN Drinking water fountain is a quite common public infrastructure in NYC. It’s designed to provide all people with clean water. What’s more, it can also shrink the waste bottle problem. However, the sanitarium of these fountains now become a serious issue. Without being cleaned in a specific sequence, there are lots of water incrustation and rust near the fountain mouth. These things do harm users’ health. The number of water fountains in NYC is numerable. Most of them scatter Priority Locations for LinkNYC with Drinking Fountain around the city which make the cleaning work even harder.

Legend

So we want to set new water fountains attached to the kiosks. These new drinking water fountains are not only easily found by the citizens and tourists , but also easily cleaned, which may repair this broken drinking water system in the future.

However, some bus stops are quite popular, considering there always more than 7 people in the shelter at the same time, a 3-people-siting bench is not appropriate. After overlapping LinkNYC location points with bus stops shelter points in NYC, we found 2two facts. One is the distances between LinkNYC kiosks and bus stop shelters are quite interesting. Except for those are much far away or overlapped completely, most kiosks are actually in the walkable radius from at least one bus stop shelter. The other one is, some of these kiosks have enough public space.

06 CONTESTED SIGHTS

CONTROVERSIES IN LOWER EAST SIDE AND TWO BRIDGES Urban Design Seminar, Spring 2019 Site: Lower East Side, NYC Instructor: Damon Hector Collaborator: Pei-jou Shih

The new plan of East Side Coastal Resiliency(ESCR) Project in announced on Sept.2018 has aroused heated debate among the local residents and organizations. It seems like the ESCR project team kept the community and the organizations in the dark and, suddenly, released the so-called “minor modified,” and “better” version plan which shocked everyone. Driven by curiosity, this research delves deeper into the essence of the Big U project and ESCR project in terms of the roles, policy, and influence on society. The project also figures out the reasons why and how conflicts arise through many on-site interviews, engagement, community meetings with local residents, organizations' staffs, such as people from East River Alliance, Community Board 3, GOLES, NDRC. On Apr.22nd, 2019, a tour focused on the stories of the BIG U, ESCR, Two Bridge Tower, led by Pei-jou Shih and Peiqing Wang, took place at Lower East Side and Two Bridges neighborhood. More than 20 people from all walks of life in NYC signed up and share their valuable and unique opinions on the conflicts and further development of Lower Manhattan during the tour.
