Thesis
Our design divides the park into a northern urban lawn and a southern urban plaza. The centerpiece is a pavilion that acts as a threshold between the two sides, catering to the views on the north and the activity on the south. This will give users a one-of-a-kind view to downtown and a connection to the southern urban plaza.
