Book excerpt: The focus of this design investigation is the warehouse fabric of the Fort Point Channel and its potentials as a model for further development This extensive configuration of warehouses and access roads is the product of an integrated process of planning. design and building. As such, it forms a useful model for creating a cohesive urban fabric. The warehouses reflect the rules of a concise architectural language. Thus, while each building was designed separately for different clients over the span of fifty years. all work together to form an urban environment which is intense. coherent and humane. Functionally, this fabric has undergone continuous change. Some of the warehouses now accommodate small printing houses and workshops; professional offices. shops, museums, studios and loft apartments. Thus. this tightly ordered 'family' of buildings has proven to be inherently inhabitable. The model represented by the warehouse fabric embodies my own goals and strategies for redeveloping and expanding the Fort Point Channel District as a living and working neighbourhood. My thesis proposes strategies for infrastructure and building typologies which will support high density, lowrise development as an extension to the existing fabric. The new development should be flexible, yet · harmonious: specific enough to suggest a distinct, overall character but open-ended enough to allow innovation in individual buildings and changing uses over time. The method tested through this investigation is therefore a process of layering. Rather than develop highly particularized solutions for each property, strategies are applied to the site as a whole. Once such overall strategies are agreed upon, specific solutions can be developed incrementally, but 'thematically', adjusting to changing circumstances as the need arises but contributing to a coherent whole.

Book excerpt: This work seeks to create an approach to the incremental development of a warehouse district in the City of Boston. The focus of the thesis is on the generation of rules and an implementation process that will organize the interface between the public and private realms. This is achieved through an archaeology of the existing site form, the analysis of disassembled elements that suggest the shape of contextual patterns, and the process for assembling the transformation from a warehousing district to a mixed- use community. The organization of the physical fabric lends itself to a variety of opportunities as well as describes the physical limitations of change. The fit between the physical parameters and the potential program for recycling determines the dynamics of the public/ private interface. By designing and constructing the public network, the impact of unknown new uses can be predetermined and controlled. The evolution of the street as structure and the sequencing of pedestrian path as the primary movement system becomes the progenerator of new tenancies. The viability of the district is constructed by designing supportive networks of movement, security, communication and territory. The inter-locking of the wide range of uses forms an urban environment unique in its place. The intention is to provide a constructive process which contains the method of assembly for the interface of public and private, site and surroundings. The goal is to generate public place, while not constraining the program which remains open-ended. The process is as significant as the design itself; in that the development of Fort Point Channel and the warehouse district is a strategy problem where the actualization of the product is continuous and without end. The process is the framework for sustaining the goals, and Street as Structure is the working method that implements those goals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part historic treasure and part development frontier, Boston's Fort Point District evolved from a landscape of mud and sea grass into a teeming hub of commercial activity. Its proximity to Boston Harbor and its development as a rail center expanded trade for New England merchants nationally and overseas and caused an array of industries-from molasses distilling to the manufacture of razor blades-to flourish here. Through unique and vintage photographs, Boston's Fort Point District reveals the history of the district's construction, commerce, and culture. Describing its wharves, bridges, buildings, and people, author Michael J. Tyrrell traces Fort Point's development from its colonial Tea Party past to its present role as New England's largest artist community.
