Broad Street, one of the oldest streets in New York, is located in the Financial District, a neighbourhood which was one of the few in Manhattan without large number of full-time residents and has long been a neighborhood ghost town at the later hours with no established community.
Several works form Jason M. Barr, a professor of economics
at Rutgers University-Newark, New Jersey, are presented
where through several examples it is observed that the
economic and demographic activities are the main factors that create the demand for the rise of skyscrapers, and that there is a strong racional behind them. It establishes the frame for construction of a skyscraper in a highly dense urban area.
A skyscraper is proposed as a responce to the demand for the
fastest growing residential neighbourhood in New York City,
the Financial District. The result is a mix-use skyscraper that aims to develop the communal life, and at the same time, respond to the demands of the current reals-estate market by offering specter of possible residential units.
The central concern of the master thesis, is how to design a
skyscraper as an architectural phenomenom that emerges from
the surrounding context.
Broad Street, ena od najstarejših ulic v New Yorku, nahaja
se v Finančnem okrožju, ki je eno od redkih v Manhattanu
brez visoko število stalnih prebivalcev in je že dolg časa bila okrožje brez življenja.
Več dela od Jason M. Barr, profesor ekonomije na Univerza
v Rutgers-Newark v New Jerseu so predstavljeni, kjer se čez
številnih primerov sklepa, da so ekonomski in demografski
aktivnosti glavni dejavniki, ki vstvarjajo povpraševanje za
grajenje nebotičnikov in da obstaja močna racionalnost za
njim, kjer upraviči izgradnja nebotičnikov v visoko-gostih
urbanih naseljah.
Predlagan je nebotičnik, kot odziv na povpraševanje za
najhitrejšo rastajujoče stanovanjsko naselje v Finančnem
okrožju v New Yorku. Rezultat je nebotičnik mešane rabe,
ki cilja na vstvarjanje skupinskega življenja in hkrati se
odziva na povpraševanje trenutnega nepremičninskega trga s
ponujanjem spektra možnih stanovanjskih enot.
Glavna tematika magistrske naloge je kako oblikovati
nebotičnik kot arhitekturni fenomen, ki raste iz okoliškega
konteksta.
