Site Analysis - Parcel Selection

The two marked site parcels can be an interesting place to build upon because of it's placement in the north-east and it being quite symetrical, there could be potential cons like the fact that it's closer to the main parking spaces, making for a noisy surrounding.

The parcel on the park's east side seems to quite irregular in shape, potential pros and cons of the site could be that the site doesn't really have a defined entrance pathway, which couldbe also potential for an interesting floor plan if done well.

the parcel situated on the south west side of the park can be extremely interestng because of the shape created alongside the epark curved pathway, it also receives a lot of movement and building could split in two

The two parcels on the north west and north east of the site seem to follow an interesting triangular form, potential cons could be that that asymetrical form with a defined point on one side could make for a hard floor plan to achieve well.

My chosen final site seems to combine most pros of most other sites because it combines a central plot following a main central axis with a igh level of movement whilst still being acoustically fit because of its central placement, far awaty from surrounding cars.

This particular parcel remains to be one of my other secondary choices because of its large area parcel area, and its location being in the southwest of the park where it would be the first building to be seen from people driving on th emain road.
