About Nyc 2050 Rencana Induk Kota

NYC 2050 adalah rencana induk kota untuk New York City yang merespons kenaikan permukaan air laut. Rencana ini mengkaji sejarah tepian Manhattan dan menunjukkan bagaimana kota tersebut dapat kembali beradaptasi untuk masa depan. Banjir diterima sebagai bagian dari kehidupan urban sehari-hari, dengan Venesia sebagai rujukan. Rencana induk ini menghadirkan perubahan-perubahan yang dibutuhkan agar sebuah kota yang terendam banjir tetap menjadi pusat kosmopolitan yang dinamis dan penting. Usulan ini didukung oleh riset mengenai prediksi iklim dan disajikan sebagai rangkaian manipulasi foto digital dalam format persegi.

Tags
New York City, Climate Change, Flood, Sea Level Rise, Masterplan, 2050
Production Technology
The whole masterplan was designed and created using photo manipulations on Photoshop.
Design Challenge
The critical part was to carefully study the city's current masterplan in order to better design the new one that required major real state compromises. The new design had to accommodate the necessary changes, introduce a new urban life and reimagine a new New York that is ready to embrace the future.
Research
The masterplan was conceptualized by studying the history of Manhattan's edge, the climate crisis predictions by the United States Landfalling Hurricane Probability Project, and several climate studies produced by the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies.
Inspiration
As one looks throughout the history of Manhattan's edge, one may realize how it has changed throughout the years in order to better adapt the city to the needs of the time. This masterplan addresses the necessary changes to make NYC a resilient city as it embraces the current climate crisis and it readapts itself once again for the future. By taking Venice as inspiration and letting the flood be part of the city life, a new New York is brought to life.
Project Duration
August - December 2015. Ithaca, NY.
Walmir Luz, Thesis, Bachelor of Architecture, Cornell University.
Operation Flow
This masterplan can be used to identify the changes that NYC will have to implement in order to accommodate the needs of a flooded city.
