Term 1 Developing a structure plan for the Bays The first look at the Bays involved coming up with a structure plan for the entire precinct. This first step was largely focused on environmental sustainability

3

Sustainability and the Bays The first step at looking at sustainability within the Bays was through the context of environmental sustainability. As part of a group, a structure plan was created that envisioned a circular economy within the Bays. Here Sydney’s waste would be collected and recycled or remade into products which would drive the economy on site. The structure plan also placed an emphasis on car-less neighbourhood design.

Objectives

1. Create a regional recycling hub for 2. Establish a circular economy within Inner West site

1. Prioritise slow movement of pedestrians and create convenient cycling routes

3. Combine industrial recycling use with an urban mixed-use neighbourhood

2. Develop a network of rooms across the Bays precinct to slow pedestrian traffic

4. Create a natural waterfront stormwater filter

3. Create car free neighborhoods

Term 1 Exploring socially equitable design processes Alongside developing a structure plan for the Bays, I was required to explore a research topic.

For this I chose to explore the idea of social sustainability and social equity in design. My research specifically focused on how design processes can be socially equitable. This would form the beginning of my focus on social equity for the following work throughout the year.

6

First forays into socially equitable design As part of a research essay I analysed two examples of socially equitable urban parks and the democratic design methods used by landscape architects

Parckfarm Location: Brussels, Belgium Designers: Taktyk, Alive Architecture Completed: 2014 Size: 3 ha Parckfarm is an interactive urban farming exhibition that was built as part of Brussel’s Tour and Taxis redevelopment. The exhibition was initially planned to be a temporary one as part of the Parckdesign festival. The community was involved in the project throughout most of its journey. Installations were designed by multi-disciplinary teams which involved a designer, local citizen and a regional farmer. Other citizens were given opportunities to provide feedback on design proposals. During the construction phase several installations were built with the help of the local community. These installations and their accompanying events were then run by locals with the help of organisers. The exhibition was so successful the local residents decided to continue running it after the festival’s end(Landezine 2017).

Park am Gleisdreieck Location: Berlin, Germany Designers: Atelier Loidl Completed: 2014 Size: 40 ha Park am Gleisdreieck was built on the site of a former railway line which was abandoned after WWII. The site has had a strong history with citizen initiatives, with citizens banding together to block development proposals in the 70s and early 90s. In 1999 several citizen initiatives banded together to form the group AG Gleisdreieck, with the goal of lobbying for the construction of a park. The Berlin government eventually launched a park design competition which was won

by Atelier Loidl. The following year a thorough participatory planning procedure began which included: a citizen survey, an online forum and on site activities. The next stage of the planning process began in 2007 and continued to involve local citizens, who were encouraged to present different design visions for the park to the design team. In 2011 the eastern section of the park was completed and in 2014 the western section was completed (Müller 2020).

Term 2 Designing a socially equitable neighbourhood for the Bays The focus for the second term moved towards putting parts of my research into practice and adapting the design of one of the neighbourhoods from my structure plan. The goal was to design a neighbourhood with a focus on fostering a socially sustainable community

10

Initial design for a socially equitable neighbourhood The first look at what a mixed tenure neighbourhood was on the current site of the passenger terminal.

Social Equity and Urban Renewal Globally a trend has started to emerge, where cities seek to revitalise neighbourhoods through the creation of mixed-income neighbourhoods1. This has brought issues around gentrification and social equity to the fore. Despite the idea that gentrification is largely driven by economic factors, research has shown that landscape can cause environmental gentrification. Both small and large scale interventions can result in environmental gentrification.2 In the context of this problem my topic seeks to explore how landscape architects can create socially equitable spaces as part of urban renewal projects.

The Bays Despite a high proportion of high income earners in the neighbouring suburb of Balmain, there still exists a minority population of low income residents3. This minority population could increase in the future as the Inner West Council is currently pushing to have at least 50% of all new dwellings in the Bays West redevelopment scheme to be listed as affordable housing4. This potential creation of a mixed income neighbourhood would be a reversal of the gentrification process but would still raise questions as to how a socially sustainable community could be built.

Project principles Principle 1: Create an inclusive neighbourhood Cities that are inclusive of everyone tend to be more socially equitable than cities that fail to include everyone. In order to create an inclusive city or neighbourhood, public spaces need to provide a use for everyone from children to the elderly.1

Objective 1.1: Eliminate semi private/privatisation of public space Truly inclusive neighbourhoods should provide equitable access to public space and prevent segregation.

Objective 1.2: Provide a range of programs that reflects the range of potential users of the site Inclusive neighbourhoods need to provide a use or activity for a wide range people.

Objective 1.3: Use visual cues and clear sight lines to highlight public spaces Site entrances that clearly indicate that spaces within are publicly accessible encourage people to explore within.

Principle 2: Build a socially sustainable community through the creation of CRE’s (Communication Rich Environments) In order to build a socially sustainable community, citizens need to build stronger connections with each other and thus accumulate social capital. Social capital is defined as networks of people who engage with each other in a symbiotic relationship. Communication rich environments (CRE) facilitate the building of social capital within neighbourhoods by facilitating diverse forms of interaction between a wide range of people2.

Objective 2.1: Create a series of community gardens for local residents and businesses Community gardens provide a sense of shared purpose among a community which allows them to build connections.

Objective 2.2: Create temporary use spaces that can be managed by locals (galleries, exhibitions, markets) Spaces that are flexible, informal and encourage temporary use create a relaxed atmosphere that allows interaction to occur.

Objective 2.3: Create spaces for play Encouraging people to play helps engage them with their neighbourhood and has the potential to attracts a wide range of people.

Term 2 Shifting focus towards mixed tenure neighbourhood design The second half of term two resulted in a change in site and the reinvention of a different neighbourhood in structure plan. The reason for the shift came from a desire to explore a central part of the site that required a range of spatial hierarchies. This half of the term also led to a sharper focus on mixed tenure neighbourhoods.

Lessons from Ijburg, Amsterdam • Neighbourhood facilities did not serve as places of encounter between residents of different tenure types • Neighbourhood facilities catered to more affluent residents • Minority residents missed the lack of group specific facilities in the neighbourhood • Playgrounds and other public spaces in the neighbourhood became unofficially segregated Tersteeg & Pinkster (2015)

Term 3 Developing a phasing plan for the next 30 years This stage of the year was dedicated to developing a series of phasing plans which would map out the next 30 years of development around the White Bay power station. A larger focus was put on designing a mixed tenure neighbourhood, while also balancing the need to clean a contaminated site.

How can the design of public space contribute to creating successful mixed tenure neighbourhoods?

What are mixed tenure neighbourhoods? Mixed neighbourhoods are a type of neighbourhood used by urban planners to combat a rise in segregated neighbourhoods within a city. Through the creation of neighbourhoods of varying tenure types (eg. home owners or social renters), mixed tenure neighbourhoods combat segregation by attempting to foster greater social cohesion (Roberts 2007). Mixed tenure neighbourhoods have begun to form the backbone of planning and housing policies for many European countries (Tersteeg & Pinkster 2015).

Why is this important for the Bays? The NSW government’s latest proposal for the Bays states a desire to ‘…ensure a diversity of types and tenure, including affordable housing.” (Department of Planning, Industry and Environment 2021).

The Bays will be the NSW government’s second attempt at creating a successful mixed tenure neighbourhood after the controversial Waterloo redevelopment. While the creation of a successful mixed tenure neighbourhood is a result of a number of factors, landscape architecture and the design of public space can play a large role.

How can the design of public space make an impact? The design and use of public space plays a significant role in encouraging social cohesion within mixed tenure neighbourhoods. Public spaces provide areas in which different groups encounter each other and can determine the nature of the encounter. Sharing public facilities can have positive effects, however it can also have a negative effect if spaces become segregated (Tersteeg & Pinkster 2015). Gehl highlights the significance of the public realm stating that public spaces are crucial in facilitating the ‘bumping into strangers’ (Gehl 2011).

How can we create public spaces which facilitate encounters between strangers? Jan Gehl promotes the idea that design should look at city life, then city spaces and finally buildings to ensure the best outcomes for people. By prioritising city life on a human scale, greater cohesion can be fostered within communities (Gehl 2010). Shaftoe also supports this idea, asserting that the creation of ‘convivial spaces’ is the answer. Creating public space in which people feel comfortable in provides the greatest chance of fostering social cohesion (Shaftoe 2008 ). Design of public space must also take into account the ethnic and cultural diversity of mixed tenure neighbourhood. Public spaces must crucially provide something for everyone (Tersteeg & Pinkster 2015). As a new urban development, White Bay provides the opportunity to reorder our priorities in urban design.
