This Project takes place in Soho Square, one of the many plazas along 6th Avenue.
The proposal:
-maximizes as much as possible the green absorbent areas
-creates sheltered areas
-differentiates areas by landscape elevations and design
-provides flexible spaces to develop different activities at different times
-encourages quiet night activities such as restaurants by providing a well illuminated space
-integrates little 6th avenue and Dominick st. to the park
-provides a protective lunch space for the children at the school located next to the plaza.
Long term vision: The green absorbing areas from the plaza expand creating a much more pleasant neighborhood and a "green" connection and corridor to the Hudson River Park and the river it self.
