About The Folding Boat Kogukonnakeskus
Volditud Paat, mis asub Harlemi jõe kaldal, on multifunktsionaalne ruum, mis teenindab kogukonna kolledži sõudmisrajatisena, väikese raamatukoguna ja spordiaerule pühendatud muuseumina. Volditud metallkatusega struktuur määratleb oma siseruumi, sulandades sujuvalt seinad lagedesse. Paiknedes ajalooliste ja kaasaegsete linnaosade ristumiskohas, arvestab hoolikas elementide paigutus programme, liikumisteid ja linnakeskkonda.
