Site 006

What we have is the site Piety-St Chartres. The site locates just besides the levee wall close to the Mississipi River, with a long triangle shape. St Chartres Street goes along the other long edge of the site.
The thickness of the levee wall and the impenetrability of the city road have conceived two major boundaries to the site, which are challenges but also opportunities. The levee wall is impenetrate, but on the height of the levee wall, a stunning view towards the river and downtown of the city can be absorbed. Other featured existing condition of the site is that it has a dramatic level change, by which grading plan to form an interesting terrain of the park could be achieved.
