Abstract

The dance film campus locating across the 31st and 28th Streets between Broadway and the Fifth Avenue, is aiming at an intimate relationship to the future development of the district and urban linkages. It is an open campus that restructure the existing grid form, absorbing tourism and creative industrial expansion from adjacent areas, facing newly formed industry to the public, so as to create an urban form of contemporary agora. The project is tackling the common issue of Manhattan, undesirable public space, that neglect neighbours from its redevelopment and gentrification of old industrial district in mid-town.
