猎人角是一个坐落于旧金山的前军事基地,现在濒临被改建为城市工业区的边缘。受雇于非盈利性的环境正义组织的景观设计师分析了位于猎人角船厂的公园发展计划并制定了规划理念。调解了社会对工地污染与人居中心潜力的冲突问题,该项目证明了一个规模庞大的公园可以成为一个城市的经济发动机,净化空气的催化剂,和实现环境正义的关键一步。
Hunter’s Point South is envisioned as an international model of urban ecology and a world laboratory for innovative sustainable thinking. The project is a collaboration between Thomas Balsley Associates and Weiss/Manfredi for the open space and park design with ARUP as the prime consultant and infrastructure designer.
The site is waterfront and city, gateway and sanctuary, blank slate and pentimento. These readings suggest an approach to the landscape that enhances what is unique about the site, while framing a new multi-layered identity as a recreational and cultural destination. New open spaces with connections to the surrounding communities provide access to the water’s edge and spectacular views of the Manhattan skyline.
The design incorporates active and passive recreation and a broad array of sustainable initiatives, transforming Hunter’s Point South into a new cultural and ecological paradigm.
