A Place For ALL...
To Work, To Learn, To Share, To Gather, To Celebrate…
INTRODUCTION OF THE TOPIC Mumbai, one of the dream cities in India, is an example of high-density urban scenario, but creating an image of congestion, chaos, pollution, over the past few years. One can see buildings designed to dominate the skyline, large scale infrastructure projects, commercial development, etc. But in all such developments, the city fails to cater to the basic needs and rights of the people, this affects the quality of life of the people. The station precinct creating huge problems for people where commuter have to struggle every time to pass through buses, taxi, auto-rickshaw, hawkers etc.
shows the scenario of station precinct and open space & around.
Availability, distribution and management of open space, are a major concern for Mumbai. Public open space is a necessity for people. Mumbai has about 1.1 sq.m of open space per person, compared to 1O-l2sq.m the minimum requirement laid down by UDPFI. therefore, main aim is to make space their people feel more human and more alive. Creating vibrant space for public where they can interact, learn and share their ideas.

MMRDA plans to tie up with NGOs to provide cycle hub where citizens can park their cycles outside the main exits of every station along Metro-2A and Metro-7 corridors.
As per this study, the cost of improving station areas in a periphery of 500 meters from a metro station and implementing a multi-modal integration will cost about Rs 25 crore per station,” said Dilip Kawathkar, deputy metropolitan commissioner (admin) and MMRDA spokesperson.

With TOD, it can generate funds by giving out more floor space index (FSI) for a premium. RA Rajeev, metropolitan commissioner, MMRDA said, “This way, we are looking at urban renewal and also cross subsidizing the cost to build the Metros.”

TOD STRATEGY FOR MUMBAI Mumbai city is one of the most transit rich cities in India. In the Metropolitan Region, a population of 10 million people makes 28.5 million one-way trips every day ➢ The city is divided into smaller ‘planning sectors’. These sectors cover an area of 2-4 sq. kms. ➢ Envisioned as self-sufficient sectors that meet the need for amenities, housing and employment for the given population. ➢ Urbanization has led to creating problems of urban sprawl and thereby higher usage of private vehicles, problems of pollution and increased demand of infrastructure. ➢ To address these issues, developed rapid transit systems. But, it is important to efficiently use these systems by integrating the land use with the transport infrastructure to make the cities more smartly functioning. ➢ TOD integrates land use and transport planning and aims to develop planned sustainable urban growth centers, having walk able and livable communes with high density mixed land-use. ➢ Citizens have access to open green and public spaces and at the same time transit facilities are efficiently utilized. ➢ TOD focuses on creation of high density mixed land use development in the influence zone of transit stations, i.e. within the walking distance ➢ of (500-800 m) transit station or along the corridor in case the station spacing is about 1km.

SITE CONTEXT Mumbai is the fastest developing city and furthermore, the commercial capital of India. It is a place where there is finances, trade and entertainment. The site is located just at the entrance of Mumbai, also having up-coming metro stations near it. The site is well connected with metro line 2A, metro line 7 and metro line 9 which connects the other north side parts. The site is also connected to the Western Express Highway (NH-8). This creates a unique opportunity for the development of the overall surrounding area. Multiple transport options make the area one of the most magnetic spots in the city with a significant scope of development. Metro will play an important role in achieving efficient mobility and high quality of urban life. Metro stations will improve the quality and change the way Mumbai travels and lives. The transit nodes are an important factor in an urban scenario. The design identifies unique needs of each stake holders, neighborhood and is responsive to the human dimensions catering different transit and footfall.

THE SPACES The spaces regenerate architectural experience of being connected to ground as a journey through variety of spatial configurations connecting various levels through ramps, escalators, stairs Climatically preserved pedestrian plazas, terraces, galleries, decks, gazebos, arcades, landscape courts. Volumetric experience of spaces as sequential set of vistas and promenades leading to gradual progression that integrates various activities Inclusive design that identifies unique needs of each stake holder and is responsive to the humane dimension. Proximity to nature that can find its way in to the building as open terraces, sky courts, sunk gardens, lawns, community gathering spaces, earth mounds etc.

THE PORTAL Terms portal stand for an anchor for users and the term relates with the proposed design that provides an anchor for the users. The proposed design is nothing more than a portal for the users as it is an imposing entrance into a new dimension. Apart from the movement, these portals stand as a landmark to look upon and wonder what purpose its serves. This new dimension provides users numerous facilities which empowers them into a better understanding of what an ecosystem is. These dimensions are in the form of space and time, both. People in the proposed design enter a new space which alters their mindset along with the immediate surroundings. The proposed design caters numerous functions to different categories of people which intern provides them comfort from the hustle bustle of the city. In the pre-existing context, the site surrounding suffers numerous hurdles which will be solved through the proposed portal. The design tries to create a vibrant atmosphere where people come together to interact, observe and learn. Moreover, the city of Mumbai has been a portal for many people who come searching in the city to fulfil the dreams. This term relates more to the city and its people and the characteristics it holds. This portal will serve people and introduce them to a new dimension in all together.
