Vision: "To REACTIVATE the city through introducing a vibrant. sale. exciting+ sustainable urban prototype; a prototype with a strong + healthy economy. culture + society"

Site Description: The site is situated in the central city (cc)of Christchurch + is on the eastern side of the cc. the design area for this project covers most of the areas within east fringe but the boundary is further extended to east to Barbados St. it is a space of transition from the intensive commercial development of the 'core'+ 'frame', to the adjoining central living areas + industrial zone. development potential on sites is less than the 'core' + 'frame' areas, in recognition of a more open street environment. Consequently, pedestrian + retail activity is not as prominent.

Objectives;

To provide incentives for new business + residential ventures, essentially promoting the UNIQUE elements + points of deterrence from the suburban malls
To make living on the east of cc more attractive through improving the environment, providing more OPEN SPACE, deterrent range of social activities+ excellent pedestrian circulation
To encourage the development of MULTl-ETHNIC expression
