THE PASEO

Meeting point- A waiting and a transit area for public transportation in the centre of the new Plaza Centro Development. The Plaza is a part of the Pedestrian Loop that goes all the way around the edges of the intersection.

Waiting Boot/ Trolley ArcadePaseo4th Avenue @ Inter- Waiting Boot/ Trolley

THE SMALL PLAZA

Waiting area for Theatre Visitors. The fronyard of the Rialto Theatre. By only allowing for loading and emergency vehicles the Alley becomes the frontyard for the Thatre Rialto when their guests are lining up to get tickets for the show.

THE ALLEY

retail arcade outdoor-seating

retail congress st @ intersection

Arcade and Landscaped Edge with “contained” Outdoor-seating. Sun-brakes shade the Arcade from the strong West sun.

ARCADE + LANDSCAPING

Urban Floor - Letting the sidewalk be level with the street and using the same paving on both sur-faces creates a more generous sidewalk.

Different shaped Bollards sepparates the sidewalk from the street- parking. The Bollards can be used for seating and Light and they can function as Meeting-points along the Street.

At the wide parts of the Sidewalk tree grates out of laser-cut Steel are mixed up with the use of a softer material, Decomosed Granite or Sand to give a more varied natural feeling to the sidewalk but also to allow more water to the trees.

SIDEWALK

The Vestibule

The Gate- Garage Entrances are framed by the overlying building but set back from the face of the Arcade. The “break” in the arcade is easily perceived from a distance and indicates for the cars in the street where to enter. The building over head the entrance keeps the Streetedge intact.

ENTRANCES

Short cuts - Freestanding Column at the corner of a building, the build-ing steps back a little for the pedestrian , letting the pedestrian step on the nicer “carpet” underneath the building, within the footprint of the building/ the private. Loosening up the edge between private and public.
