The Mingling of Private and Public
The local interventions make the hotel what it is. It is a continuity, carrying the character of commercial, of the Armery Square. Also a part of the Creek walk, it contains both the flourishing and tranquility of the city. To ensure the privacy for the hotel customers while having the local artists participate both the public exhibition and private rooms decoration, a museum has been planted in the hotel to provide a view of the city for visitors.

revised brief It was one of the requirements to consider the entirety of Midtown regenerated in the original Penn Station competition brief, and also to enhance the quality of the station operation. I then focused on the same issue that the station sharing with the city: circulation and as a transportation center, tried to have Penn station intervene and engage with the huge flows, the safety of walking, development of commercial and the consideration of city landscape in the surrounding area. Since the ground level and the underground level of the city have been occupied by vehicles and subways and have already been overcrowded. Also base on the research of the walkability in New York City, it led to the idea of a secondary walking system attached or goes through to the existing building. The system will be the extension of Penn Station helping to engage with the multiple users of the station as well as the continuity of the Highline.
