So I began noticing some things about Sydney's transpiration and movement thought the city very early in my time here. I have drawn sections and plan and taken picture of things a liked about it. Starting with first section, in many city there is always the problem of large roads dividing neighborhoods, suburbs, and at time families friends and animal communities. What Sydney has done thought with the use of their radical topography they taken the main arteries in and of the city and they have sunk them allowing people leaving the city to get out quickly and back to their own suburb while still allowing to changes on and off in various suburbs. I feel this is very successful in not diving up the city.
This next plan and section show how Sydney has wisely used their topography. By stacking all of these different modes in transportation it allowing a lot to go on but in a little space whiles still moving you quickly or slowly though the city.
Pictures of what has been drawn above.
that's some intense drawing there. nice!
ReplyDeleteit looks like everyone's driving on the wrong side of the road.
it's similar to what boston tried to go back and do with the Big Dig, where they had the above-ground turnpike cutting the heart of the city in half; they put it below ground and turned the new open space into a linear park, opening up corridors between different neighborhoods.
it is smiliar ... i guess you just have to experience, it they do it so well here they doe it would out you ever even knowing, when i feel that in boston its very ovious
