site analysis and photos

All,

I finally set up a blog.  Below is the email I sent last week regarding the site analysis.  Please be prepared to discuss your progress tomorrow as well as the case study.

Monday, August 15:  second case study presentation.  For this presentation, please concentrate on public open spaces.  These can be an open space that takes advantage of unique site conditions (example: the High Line, New York, USA:  Diller Scofidio and Renfro with Field Operations), encourages social interaction (the PS1 Young Architects Competition at MoMA, New York) or experiments with social spaces (Schouwburgplein, Rotterdam:  West 8).  Please choose a case study that interests you and if you need any help selecting a project, just let me know.  And feel free to use any of these above examples.

These case studies are to help you begin to envision successful meeting and circulation spaces for the ferry pier and visitor center.  While you are working on these, please also begin to think about your site analysis:
