LEED Building where possible

The project aimed to be a model for holistic, closed-loop design, Dockside Green functions as a total environmental system in which form, structure, materials, mechanical and electrical systems interrelate and are interdependent a largely self-sufficient, sustainable community where waste from one area will provide food for another.

WHAT is the Presidence?
Neighborhood Unit| Clarence Perry, 1929
Parts: Issues: Mile pedestrian shed Ideal Size of 160 Acre Neighborhood center surrounded by civic buildings Delimited Edges Commercial Use at the edge Network of narrow streets Small walk to parks throughout And the population to support an elementary school No public transport No housing variation Neglects River asset Misaligns streets with adjacent neighborhoods Tells nothing about buildings and infrastructure

Urban Unit| Duanjy Plater-Zaberk, 1990s

Parts: Substitutes boulevards for highways Aligns local streets Proposes bus stop in neighborhood center Adds parking Sites school to allow it serve multiple neighborhoods Establishes a rule of thumb of one park per quadrant

Parts: Neighborhood is a building block of a transit corridor Central bus stop replaced with higher intensity transit hub (BRT, trolley, light rail) Fitted with high performance infrastructure (district power, dimmable streetlights, and a car share every block) Mix and density support car free housing and a third place Habitat and infrastructure greenways give the neighborhoods distinct edges

WHERE to Target Form?
Integrated Network of Walkable Streets
- Street Network is a connected web of streets not necessarily a Cartesian grid - Provides multiple routes for walking, biking, and driving - Walkablity should be first priority, then add provisions for cars, trucks & Emergency vehicles - Minimum degree of enclosure formed by a building height-to-street- width Portion of 1:3 or closer - Provides non motorized choose for elderly and youth
Max Block Perimeter 1500 Max Stret Intervals 600 Apart 1/4 Mile Walking Raduis

Neighborhood Retail
Max Uniterrupted Block Face 450

- Traditional Neighborhood design often fails to meet minimum requirements for retail - Developing and managing retail centers is one of the most risky of all real estate ventures - Retail requires proving methods and techniques to minimize risk and to earn market rate return on investment - It is in the best interest of the community that retailers meet or exceed industry standards

Three Key Benefits: 1. Transportation, mixing uses is the most powerful way to reduce unnecessary traffic congestion, trips are either shortened or eliminated 2. Mixed housing scenario is far better socially, creates a homogeneous neighborhood of inclusion 3. Occupation of the neighborhood by households of varied schedules and interests adds to the vibrancy of place while adding security

Local Store National Store Third Place

- Third place describes these places as the spaces outside our homes and works and open to the general public for informal gathering, etc. - Established by people informally to go and see and be seen - It needs to be easily accessible be the people, public and it must be accessible for at least 16 hours, six days a week - Most but not all serve food and beverages to get people to stay and hang out (coffee shops, tot lots, library, dog park, etc. - Social interactions are meet, trust and form associations. - Economically third place is a space that can facilitate markets for services, employment and entertainment - Third place can facilitate interactions between new acquaintances , friends and even romances - The best third places are often family owned and run by someone that knows the everyone in the community

Car-free Housing
- Car-free housing attempts to reduce housing cost, increase development density, walking, biking and transit use. - It REQUIRES coordination and integration between developers and municipality regulations that guide development, and banks willingness to develop these types of car-free projects - Sustainable urbanism REQUIRES that the space be sold separately form the dwelling unit

Sustainable Sites Innovative

The Sustainable Sites Initiative is dedicated to fostering a transformation in land development and management practices that will bring the essential importance of ecosystem services to the forefront. The Initiatives central message is that any landscape, whether the site of a large subdivision, a shopping mall, a park, an abandoned rail yard, or a single home, holds the potential both to improve and to regenerate the natural benefits and services provided by ecosystems in their undeveloped state. Key Target Areas: 1. Site Selection 2. Pre-Design Assessment and Planning 3. Site DesignWater 4. Site DesignSoil and Vegetation 5. Site DesignMaterials Selection 6. Site DesignHuman Health and Well-Being 7. Construction 8. Operations and Maintenance 9. Monitoring and Innovation The two-year Pilot Program, which began in June 2010, included 162 registered projects. To date 23 projects have achieved SITES certification. An additional 60+ projects continue to pursue certification using the 2009 Rating System.

Living Building Challenge

The Living Building Challenge is an attempt to raise the bar. It defines the most advanced measure of sustainability in the built environment possible today and acts to diminish the gap between current limits and ideal solutions. Key Target Areas: There are four Typologies: Limits to Growth Biophilia Renovation Urban Agriculture Red List Landscape or Infrastructure Habitat Exchange Embodied Carbon Footprint Neighborhood Car Free Living Responsible Industr y Building Net Zero Water Appropriate Sourcing Ecological Water Flow Conservation + reuse Net Zero Energy Human Scale + Human Place Civilized Environment Democracy + Social Justice Healthy Air Rights to Nature Beaut y + Spirit Inspiration + Education
