【屋頂花園】美國911紀念公園旁邊的屋頂公園 | AECOM

07-15

自由公園是以世界貿易中心區為中心的64,000平方英尺（1.5英畝）的屋頂公園。公園位於該區車輛檢測中心的頂部，作為一個公開訪問的社區開放空間，前往911國家紀念碑前所未有的景色。考慮到該空間的佔地面積相對較小，並且需要多個利益相關者群體，因此在循環與編程之間取得了平衡，以便在這個高度城市化的社區中最大限度地發揮公園般的感覺。鬱鬱蔥蔥的綠色植物和季節性種植的景觀沿著一系列輕坡坡道和階梯式花園空間展開，營造出沿著「高架長廊」散步的經驗。通過現場的主要路徑在上檔中上升近32英尺，符合ADA無障礙要求。該空間由一系列雕塑，預製花匠組織。由不同的刻面幾何特徵，種植者不對稱地布置在整個現場的漂移中，如散射鑽石領域，為現場的布局和流通帶來清晰的定義。隨著用戶走過公園，種植者就會出現在一個瀑布中，創造出蜿蜒的視野和溫馨的「花園間」，為更大的聚會和親密的時刻提供空間。每個元素都是傾斜的，提供了一體化的座位，並且在低側上植被茂密的植被。較小的種植者錨定公園的邊緣，作為季節性種植花園和寬敞的太陽椅兩倍。沿著公園的北邊，一個露天劇場和200英尺長的俯瞰，讓遊客能夠欣賞紐約市標誌性的世界貿易中心區的獨一無二的美景。公園的輕鬆親密的氣氛和911紀念池的溫柔聲音，為當地社區和遊客創造了寧靜的喘息。

Liberty Park is a 64,000 square foot (1.5 Acre) roof-top park centered within the World Trade Center District. The park is situated on top of the district』s vehicle screening center and serves as a publicly accessible community open space with unprecedented views to the 911 National Memorial.

Considering the site』s relatively small footprint and the needs of multiple stakeholder groups, a balance between circulation and programming was carefully developed to maximize a park-like feel in this highly urban neighborhood. Lush pockets of greenery and seasonal plantings unfold along a series of gently sloped ramps and stepped garden spaces, creating the experience of walking along an "elevated promenade". The primary path through the site winds up nearly 32 feet in above grade and meets ADA accessibility requirements.

The site is organized by a series of sculptural, precast planters. Characterized by a distinct faceted geometry, the planters are asymmetrically arranged in drifts across the site, like a field of scattered diamonds, bringing sharp definition to the site』s layout and circulation. As users walk through the park, the planters appear in a cascade, creating meandering view sheds and intimate 『garden rooms』 that provide space for both larger gatherings and moments of intimacy. Each element is tilted, providing integrated seating on the raised side and a lush display of vegetation on the low side. Smaller planters anchor the edges of the park, doubling as both seasonal planting gardens and spacious sun lounges.

Along the north side of the park, an amphitheater and a 200 foot long overlook allow visitors to take in one-of-a-kind views of the NYC"s iconic World Trade Center District. The relaxed, intimate atmosphere of the park and the gentle sounds of the 911 Memorial Pools beyond create a tranquil respite for the local community and visitors alike.
