“EYES ON THE STREET” URBAN SECURITY IS NOT SIMPLY A MATTER OF POLICING: IT IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE QUALITY OF PUBLIC SPACES AND THEIR ABILITY TO ATTRACT PEOPLE ONTO THE STREETS. THE SITE IS LOCATED IN THE SOUTH PHEONIX, WHICH IS KNOWN FOR ITS CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES.PUBLIC SPACES ARE CONNECTED TO COLLECTIVE IDENTITY, EVERYDAY LIFE, AND THE WAYS THAT WE INTERACT AND MEET ONE ANOTHER. SO I BRIEFLY DESCRIBE MY CONCEPT AS “EYES ON THE STREET” AND TRIED TO FORMULATE A PROGRAM WHICH INTEGRATES WITH THE FIRE STATION, JUXTAPOSE THE ACTIVITIES IN SUCH A WAY THAT IT CREATES NAUTURAL SURVELLIENCE BY DEVELOPING SEQUENCE OF SPACES WHICH RESOLVES THE ISSUE AT CTIY LEVEL. UNDERSTANDING THE COMPLEXITIES OF FIRE FIGHTERS ALONG WITH DANGER WHICH THEY HOLD WITH THEMSELVES, THE SPACES ALSO RESEMBLES THE IMPORTANCE OF FIRE FIGHTERS TO THE COMMUNITY BY CONNECTING PUBLIC AREAS WITH PRIVATE VIA SEMI PRIVATE ELEMENTS.

PROGRAMMING STRATEGY
The programming of the site aims to make the place active throughout the day so and serves as eyes on the street 4/24
FORM EVOLUTION
Dividing the site in to two blocks of community park and fire station
Subtracting mass to create spaces for outdoor activities
Using the roof as a park and creating circulation in-between the blocks
Creating porosity into the masses for accessibility
The form of the building masses evolved during the design process which is responds with the site as well as to the context 5/24

The building is raised at a level of 1’-6” in the fire station area while the community park has play of levels to create pockets for using along with ramps to make the park a universally accessible space.

STRUCTURAL SYSTEM
The continuous row of columns in the community park creates a semi-covered space for the users and integrating with the structural system of the fire station area.

STRUCTURAL SYSTEM
RCC column and beam structure holds all the spaces together expect for the apparatus bay area where steel truss system is used in order to accomodation services easily and create a light structure for the trucks to move.

ZONE AND AIRFLOW DIAGRAM
A space airflow diagram is often a great help in showing how each space pressure relates to adjacent spaces and showing airflow paths. The diagram here represents the three zones and its related air pressure. 20/24
